brand new 160GB hard drive $40 at Frys

[CosmicGrooves]

I saw the ad in the newpaper while using the restroom at work. There was the Maxtor 7200 rpm 8mb ATA100 and the Maxtor 7200 rpm 8mb SATAII/300. The regular price on the tag at Frys said about $85 or something but the big yellow tag said $39.99.

I feel this is a great deal! I also got the very last SATAII drive. There were still lots of the ATA100.

It's a Maxtor Basics SATA II/300 retail harddrive box.

I"m upgrading from Maxtor 80gb ATA133 8mb, so this is a nice deal to me.

Same hard drive at Newegg is $60 shipped.

This should go into the Cyberdeal Thread.

Which Fry's location? I'm 10 minutes from the Duluth and Alpharetta locations in GA, but deals don't always include all stores.

It's cheap, but I don't care much for Maxtor anymore. Especially with the thrashing my HDs take.

The newspaper made me think any Fry's. It didn't specify a specific one. There are a couple Fry's around here and I just went to the closer one.

I've used Maxtor for years, and they work great for me. Had 20GB, 40GB, 80GB and now a 160GB. I've had my 80 for about five years, maybe.

I'm in Texas.

My local Fry's has the 400GB Seagate for $99.99 though. Others may too.

Fry's B&M does not follow online orders via Fry's.com/Outpost.com and vice versa. They are somewhat separate entities.
