Just want to point out that the drive that's linked is different than the one pictured in the summary. The linked drive is a force 3 using cheaper Async nand while the one pictured is a force 3 gt using the more expensive Sync nand.

FW staff frequently post pictures in the quick summary that are of higher quality (and often, cost) than what is in the deal offered in the OP. I think that it is a dishonest and misleading practice, but I've never seen anyone call them on it. I'm guessing that they'll keep doing it unless someone's lawyer contacts them about bait and switch tactics/false advertising.
