I just came from Best Buy in Colma, CA and found a super sweet deal on this one...
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8490634&st=maxtor+750GB&lp=2&type=product&cp=1&id=1186003684035

For only $63.99 + Tax...nice!!! I'll try to post a receipt later if you want for those who wants to PM.

DO NOT CALL!!!
$63.99 is OVER. Price goes up to $143.99 now

If these drives really are on clearance at that price, DO NOT CALL YOUR BB STORE FOR A PRICE CHECK... BB employees will buy them for themselves.

my store at morrow, ga 30260 has 4 in stock for $125.99 each

Not meaning to TC, but HORRIBLE reviews across the board. I'm like 5 minutes from Colma and I don't know if that price is worth the pain and frustration of a fried HDD.

GREAT price and great share by the OP...I just hate losing ANY data....let alone 750GB worth.

If u actually read those there is some issues with mac. I do not know why?
but more than 90% of the people who complained used this drive with Mac.

may b the OS has no relation to the drive. but one of the reviewer said the drive was not recognized by Mac OS.

Looks like all the reviews that are negative are complaining about the crappy software. The One Touch IIIs had abysmal backup software, too. $64+tax for a 750gb internal Seagate drive is pretty smokin'. It'll probably take all of 5 minutes to get the drive out of the enclosure.

Confirmed @ Folsom, CA BestBuy, but none left on shelf.

This is the Maxtor OneTouch4 Plus.
It's probably a pricing mistake -- a dropped $100, since the Maxtor OneTouch4 drives are about 150.

Got one in Cincinnati, OH.

OK, I know I'm gonna get red but... my nearest BB is an hour away and I won't drive just to see if they have it in stock.

On line inventory checker said they had it. I called to confirm that they had it and they didn't (good thing I didn't drive). However, they were willing to call around to find one for me. Looking on their computer system the price is $143.99 but rings up at $63.99. So they're getting one shipped from another store for me and will charge me $63.99 when it arrives. They said its a promotion that starts today.

namcongtu-- you might want to see how they ring up.

Scored one with 10% off coupon, $57.xx+tax!! in DFW area

There was a yellow clearance tag clearly showing the low price, this is no pricing error...

Couldn't find any there, so reluctantly had to approach a blue shirt (what with the high price of gas and all) to check if any other stores had it in stock. He looked it up, didn't bat an eyelid and said oh we should have 6 of these. He was very helpful in locating them for me. I just took one.

Is this SATA or PATA?
