Is it possible or even advisable to create a Seagate hard drive deal thread to keep they deals limited to 1 thread??

Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM
$94.99 - $10 code (AFC320G) = $84.99 with FREE 3 day shipping

I bought two of these (before the $10 off, darn it!), and they are excellent drives. $85 for a fast 320GB drive? Excellent deal.
 
I just ordered one of these and a miniStack. Now that I've figured out how to use iRecord with my cable box, I'll use this setup to record HD content. Thanks again for the discount code.
 
Anyone have a recommendation for an eSata, firewire, usb 2.0 external enclosure?:D

Isn't the Ministack PATA, though? Let me know if it's not, cause I could sure use more space for my Mini!
 
Pretty sure it is...

According to the specs on their website it is onlt PATA. "Any single* 3.5" Parallel ATA Hard Drive (Desktop size) ATA-6 compatible (>128GB Drive Support)"

If anyone knows of a external enclosure that has FW interface and supports SATA drives that isn't terribly expensive, please post it.

Um, yeah. :eek:

Which is why I'll put the SATA into a spare enclosure and order a PATA drive. Ooops!

Edit: was able to cancel the SATA, bought a PATA. Now trying to figure out if I can swing a SATA drive as well, as that's still a sweet deal.
