Product Info Link

Is it USB 3.0 or 2.0 ? The link to the product doesn't say...

Hmmm... $40 for 750GB or Costco's 3TB for $100... or maybe one of each.

I wonder which is a bigger waste of time...going to Target to never find any B&M clearance deals or people posting about a deal they'll never find at Target.

Not clearance, if it was I would have said so.

My Target has 7 on the shelf right now.

Would it be possible to rip the drive out of the enclosure and put it in a PS3? I see that it is a 2.5" drive.

Green for you.
Got 2.

Thanks for posting. Just got back from target and picked two up. None were on the shelf, had to ask them for it. They were still in the process of putting the sales stuff up on the shelves. Also picked up a Logitech m315 mouse for $10, orig price $19.

The reviews on Newegg seem decent. Usb 3.0 is nice, the cord is really short maybe a foot long. 698GB of useable space. The case does have a cheap feel to it, and does have sharp edges to it. Over all great price for $39

Thanks OP. Grabbed 3 for Christmas gifts.

I got there just few minutes before store open. They are only 2 available so I pickup both. It is small external portable drive.

I'd prefer the costco - better value and return policy. But I think I'll get one or two of these if it's easy today. Costco's deal starts Black Friday, so there's likely a lot of hassle, risk of being out of stock, and of course GEOC*

*Gravy Eating Opportunity Cost

Just returned from Walnut Creek, CA store... none on shelf, so I asked. Was instantly told (with gum-smacking I-don't-care attitude), "OOS." I asked for department manager to find out why sale item that started 1 hour ago was already OOS, and why DPCI# online shows "in stock." Worker huffed and puffed, then pulled it up on scanner and saw they had 6 in stock... so she huffed and puffed and got it pulled from back stock (and probably played "hacky drive" with it all the way back to the selling floor). *sigh*

BTW, I only bought one... so there are probably 5 more available.

For the USB 3.0 to work you have to have a USB 3.0 installed in your computer. If you have a USB 2.0, you will only get USB 2.0 speeds, which are darn slow

And I have taken advantage. It's one of the main reasons I like to purchase at Target. When in doubt buy, and no hassle if I change my mind.

There is no comparing TGT to Costco wrt return policy. If you're not familiar with Costco's, you should read up on it.

I got one. None on the shelf when I got there, but an employee checked and saw two more in the back. One for me, one for another shopper. The web site still reports "In stock".

LiquidChild, 1TB for $50 sounds great, I did not see that. Key factors are support for USB 3.0 (not just 2.0), and for some, size. The 750 is the small style, which is preferable in some cases.

Thanks OP grabbed the last one on the shelf!

Was going to wait until Black Friday to stock up on hard drives, but this was too good to pass up, and miraculously, my Target had a bunch in stock! Thanks OP.

FWIW, all of their externals were on sale:

2TB WD $90
1TB WD $80
2TB Seagate $80
1TB Seagate $70

320GB Seagate $35

Kind of moot as I am not a member at Costco. Don't have a big enough family to justify it. I don't have to pay anything to shop or return something at Target.

But feel free to fill me in because unless they pay you extra when you return the only thing that I could think would make it better than Target's policy is a longer return time frame. That would be nice but I would think for most 90 days is pretty good.

I don't have Costco either (or Sam's or BJ's or anything else) but people I know rave about Costo's return policy. It might even be one year for returns (or something like that).

Like you, I think 90 days is fine in my case. I picked up this drive today as a gift for my dad. 90 days will give me enough time to decide whether I get him something else, use it myself, or need to take it back.

Picked up two in Carson City, NV and there were still two left around 2 PM.

where is costco link. please share
