$5 cheaper than several previous deals. (1, 2, 3)
There's also the Backup Plus but it's only available for Click and Collect.
Seagate Backup Plus 2TB Desktop Hard Drive USB 3.0
The drives comes with 3 year warranty but this will be void if you remove the casing to use the 3.5" drive inside.
This is not the portable version. You will need a power outlet.
Tempted but I'm skipping this for a bigger one. Good price tho
I bought one the last time this special was promoted (3 weeks ago).
It's been plugged in, and running without an issue.
Bought online, instore. Click & collect. Wonder how long I'll have to wait. Haha.
Hmm… they wave to wait until head office clears my payment before they can give it to me. Dicking around!
LOL… received this email from DSE

nice, purchased one delivered, hopefully no dramas with them this time round
So you would get another 5% cheaper at office works with price matching?
Not if its an online only pricing. Based on my experience Dicking with Office Works.
Even though the in store pick up is almost next door (30 second walk)
Oh, then the 30-second rule applies.
@muncan:
Thanks muncan, I other words they will use any old excuse. May as well give he original discounter the money.
I did, just walked in and showed them the dse cart showing $74 and they beat it down to $70.30
Maybe I should have but I ended up just ordering with dse.
Thanks for trying it out. I went to my local Officeworks asked if they could price match $74 at DickSmith and he asked whether it was to do with a Dicksmith discount. He found out about the $25 off from reading OzBargain. The rest of the purchase was simple. Registered as $70.30 plus I made use of the 5% tap-and-go discount from MeBank.
Have been around this price for a while when on sale last year, but the Aussie dollars go down
Thanks, ordered one.
for removing them - i find with the seagate drives, there is no sticker or other witness marking. so if you are careful when you remove it (take an extra minute and use a soft tool) you could quite easily replace it back into the case and return for warranty if required. That's my opinion anyway.
Mine arrived on Tuesday and I tested it to ensure it wasn't DOA. It's fine.
Now I just have to wait to receive it on my birthday and feign surprise.
first ever exteranl hdd I have purchased that switches itself off if the usb isnt connected
Very nice, affordable storage at u3.0 speeds.
