500GB Seagate Momentus Laptop Drive for $119 on Bestbuy.com

I was surprised to see that this is one of the rare occassions that Best Buy actually has a really good price on something. I just recently bought me and my wife 320GB Western Digitals though, and I think my wife would kill me if I bought another Tech Toy at the moment.

If anyone gets one though, let me know so I can live vicariously though you.

Here's the link.

Is this the same one?

If so, it is $89.

Why not buying the 7200rpm version instead, if you're going to bite the trouble of exchanging the drive? It's not much more expensive, but very much faster.

+1 5400 to 7200 RPM is a huge speed increase.

+2 I put the 7200 in my MBP and it has been great. I would recommend it.

The problem is, though, that the Momentus 7200.4 drives are still quite hard to come by, sadly.
