As per title. Cheapest on StaticIce is $99. This may be marked $99 in store (mine was) but scanned at $88.

Note this is a 2.5" USB 3 drive which is backwards compatible with USB 2.

    It feels good to know that I bought my 1GB 2.5" USB3.0 My Password Essential from OW at $93 about a month ago.

    My laptop only has USB 2.0 ports and wondering how can I get it works on my machine?

    • gadgetguy on 21/07/2011 - 13:41

      USB 3 is backwards compatible so it will work fine. I edited the description.

      yes, i have one and it works fine… if anything, the connector on the drive is much more robust…

    • alexme on 21/07/2011 - 14:05

      if your laptop has an expresscard or pc card slot, you can get a USB3 adapter card that will give you faster speeds than USB2 but not as fast as a normal USB3 port (because expresscard is limited to 5gbps BUT this probably won't limit the speed with a HDD anyway).

      • vincecheng on 21/07/2011 - 17:10

        How much is the adapter, roughly? Where I can get it?

  • Kaboda on 21/07/2011 - 13:49

    I think I saw on a JB hifi leaflet Buffalo 1GB 2.5inch USB3 for $98.
    So slightly more than what you paid for delfredo.

    Sorry I havent scanned or posted this deal.

    worst thing about office work deals is you can't take them to officeworks for extra discount :3

    • kirynflare on 21/07/2011 - 14:14

      cant you take it to dicksmiths for a price beat? :S

  • successful on 21/07/2011 - 14:43

    Was gonna go get one of those USB 2.0 that's around $50 something for uni, but only just realized its been phased out =3

  • leo2011 on 21/07/2011 - 19:58

      but it says in the post below that its a 750Gb

  • tuk on 22/07/2011 - 12:17

    got this one today, very nice drive, its worth the extra few extra $$ to buy from officesworks for the 3 years warranty.

    fingers cross i never need to claim it. usb3 is the way to go transferring around 70mb/s ^_^

  • abacus on 22/07/2011 - 13:49
