Seagate ST310005N1A1AS-RK, keep or take back?

[Niku-Sama]

ok so i was at wally world and i noticed these 1tb seagate drive on clearence...probably because rednecks dont often stick new hard drives in their computers (red neck town here) it was $75, little less than new egg and here and now no shipping, Retail box so its 5 year limited instead of a 3 year limited warranty as with all the ones i have found online, i also scanned all the boxes and got the newsest (higher number S/N)

New egg specs:

its not part of the 7200.xx drives its different....some how, only 18 reviews on new egg so has any one else herd any thing (good or bad) about these? i havent opened it yet and i have 15 or 45 days to take it back so i thought i would ask first. its probably not going to be a primary drive for a while but it might be, i currently have a 320Gig 7200.11 that i have had for a few years thats still working good

oh and yea it was a total impulse buy because my bank account for the first time in a long time said $3000+

Do you need it? If yes then keep it, if no, then take it back. Using logic of "I have lots of money in the bank" so therefore I need to spend is pretty poor. I don't want to turn this into a fiscal/life advice thread, but just because somethings a decent deal doesn't meen you should spend money on it.

Also "herd" should be heard. Shouldn't talk about rednecks when you are one.

Really? That is your first post on this forum? A personal insult. It would behoove you to read the rules (specifically, rule #1) and think long and hard about your posting style before you post again, or your stay here will likely be quickly truncated.
