Thanks OP!!!

Just picked one up at the Porter Ranch, CA store# 130.
Used the 10% off coupon for a total of $ $134.99 + $11.14 tax(8.25%)=$146.13

They had a total of 4 on the shelf, but only 3 were the ones with serial# starting with "DTG". I bought one so there should be 2 left. They are a bit hard to find since they put the products all over the store.
They are in the computer department along the right side wall towards the back of the store where they keep all the hard drives on the shelf.

If you're in the Porter Ranch area and want to save another 1% in tax just head over to the Simi Valley BB store since Ventura county tax is 7.25% instead of 8.25% in Porter Ranch(LA county). Ok maybe not worth the drive for 1% additional saving but every bit helps, HaHa! =)

Hi, I was wondering if I could use this on my Lenovo T60, does anyone know where can I check that?

Check if your T60 uses SATA connection, and if it does, then no problem with using the drive.

I'm in the process of installing it in a T60 right now . . .

My old laptop has Win98SE and USB 1.1. Will this drive work with that laptop via USB port?

TIA

I actually have two running on my T60p too. The first one was bought about a month ago at full price. Oh well..
Running fine right now with two drives.

I believe laptop must have/use SATA HD in it which is mostly like not the case with laptops older than 3 years. Check your laptop manual to determine the HD in your laptop.

It will work, and you will need to install the USB storage driver under Windows 98.

And also, since you only have USB 1.1, you won't be able to take advantage of the high speed. Time to upgrade.

Think... putting a 8 cylinder super duper engine into a bicycle, it has power but you won't be able to enjoy it.

so once I purchased it, how can I check it is a 7200 rpm drive or not?

Thanks.

Thanks OP! Picked up a few in the SF Bay Area. Emeryville and Pleasant Hill have no more of the DTG drives. The packaging is also slightly different between the 7200rpm drives and the 5400rpm drives, the 7200rpm packaging is all white around the hard drive, whereas the non 7200rpm ones have small blue icons on this white background. Also, you don't need to take apart the hard drive to find out whether it is the 7k200. Simply connect it via the USB and you can look at the device name and if it is the 7200rpm one it will say 7k200 in the name.
