    That's a pretty awesome deal for a firewire 800 drive !!!!

    • WaywardOne on 23/05/2013 - 07:57

      Agreed! A few years ago I paid > $100 for a FW800 portable 2.5" drive case.

      To be fair though, firewire is nearly dead now (the latest generation of Macbooks don't even support it?)

      • jeppetto367 on 23/05/2013 - 10:00

        They do support it, but you need to buy a $35 Thunderbolt>FW adapter. Luckily you can daisy chain FW so you only need one adapter.

  • digitalane on 23/05/2013 - 10:35

    I don't need FW but is this a good deal for a USB 3.0 drive - seems good?

  • saffy on 23/05/2013 - 10:58

    The WD appears to be USB 2.0, not 3.0

  • cqbman on 23/05/2013 - 11:57

    Seems to be $59.95 + shipping, not $39.95 + shipping. At least that's what's coming up for me?

      You're probably clicking the link to the mystery one, try the main link or click the picture for the cheaper white one.

  • digitalane on 23/05/2013 - 12:39

    Just realised it is USB 2.0 for the WD, plus they wan't 2.5% to pay by credit card - no thanks

  • Sebby on 23/05/2013 - 18:25

    $9.95 for each additional item added?!?
    $98.95 to ship 10 units? surely even an express courier would only cost around the $50 mark.
