  OMG there's actually stock! At least in Melbourne.
  Too bad I've got more HDDs than I know what to do with…

    Unlikely that any HDD that has 4.0TB capacity would be portable (usb powered.

  Seems like a really good price, Amazon's and Newegg's going rates for a 4TB external HDD is $160 US and above. Cheapest on StaticICE and Get Price.

  Even Buffalo's 4TB drives are going for $195 at OW.

  Are they reliable yet? Seagates 4tb were duds.. WD/hitachi were safer.

    Those were the old enclosures that overheated. These newer ones seem to have 4-star ratings across the board on Amazon (1,000 plus reviews) as well as on Newegg.

      I thought most of those reviews were for reliable ones like 2tb. Really dislike the way the amazon reviews are mixed together - drives up to 2tb have very different failure rates than 3-4tb drives.

  I bought 2 of these for $300 shipped in March. Similar to this deal (amazon)- http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/102209

  I guess hard drive prices haven't been going down lately?

    lowest is USD$129.99 + shipping, and iirc that's before Australian dollar sank!
    if you order just 1, it was AUD$142 delivered, order more = cheaper

    $40 discount each compare to current deal….sad to see how Australian dollar sank to bottom!

  Not a really good price. I just bought one from JB a week ago for ~$150 with the 20% off deal. Its a deal at $150, pretty average at $170+

    I did the same a couple of weeks ago.

    JB's ticket price is still higher though ($188) and those vouchers are only redeemable once. Most people would get two for backup purposes/converting them to internal drives for RAIDs, etc.

      voucher?

        If you're subscribed to the JB mailing list (need an account with them), you receive flat-rate discount vouchers for particular brands (Sony, Seagate, Apple) or for particular kinds of stock (CDs, Blu-Rays, Hard Drives, Computers). They're usually in the range of 10-25% off and are only redeemable for one purchase.

  Can this be taken out and used as internal HDD?
