Decent deal for $135 Shipped, no?

Got some questions though, do these drives sleep after being idle for so and so time?

My Western Digital MyBook sleeps after some amount of time, i'm not sure if that's the MyBook sleeping by itself, or the power settings on my macbook pro putting it to sleep.

Do these use the new Oxford chipsets? also, is the drive inside a SATA or IDE drive?

I thought about getting one of those OWC Mercury enclosures and throwing a seagate drive, but that would be over $200 total.
 
I can't personally answer your questions, but wow, that does look like a good deal. I might have to ask for one for christmas :)

I think the drive is IDE
