Not bad if you need a small drive. I am looking for a 500GB for $50 
.
think I found my next boot drive. These are single platter, older 7200.9 series.

** Thanks OP **
In for a new boot drive. Thanks, OP!
good drive if i needed another.
nice price
got one. I picked up 2 SATA drives for about this cost last time they had them in stock. Good pricing, includes shipping.
Ordered one last night. Great upgrade for my wife's older PC.

The only reason to buy these would be for RAID really.

Main use for these IMO is a system for your parents or other family member that wouldn't need even 160GB in a 100 years.
$0.21875 / GB
No thanks. I wouldn't pay over $0.15 / GB and that's pushing it.

If a drive is 10GB, the price wouldn't be $1.50. The more capacity a hard drive holds, the cheaper "per GB" it is. Since this is only a 160GB, $35 is a good price for it. Some people don't necessary want to spend $80 on a 500GB drive even if it is $0.15/GB.
Just bought 3 of the the SATA 300's. 1/2 the people I build for won't use over 20Gigs their whole lives and it would only be a waste of money for them to have a bigger drive. The Seagate's a step up in quality and warantee from WD and Max. Thanks OP!
Man...looking for a 2.5"...

Technology is not as up to par as it could and should be. The drive is overpriced, consider a better alternative.
Thanks OP! Just in time. Picked one up for an Aunt's computer that has a dieing hard drive. Didn't need to be anything massive and as cheap as possible was the order of the day. This fits that bill perfectly. Would have picked one up to replace my even older Boot drive, if I had a spare $35 lying around. 
Free shipping is nice, they did charge tax for Illinois, $2.19 per drive.
