If I didn't want to get married to WD for my RAID file-server build I'd jump on it. I've heard good things about the Samsungs; guess I'll have to wait.
that hard drive dock is only $10, great deal! thanks OP! I sure don't want to buy another enclosure, and i have 2 other hard drives i can use with it that can be on the shelf, much better use of space.
Note that 20% give one egg, Newegg packs OEM drives poorly, Seagate will not accept the drive unless you buy retail packaging. (yes I know this is WD,but that is just an example of how bad they package) Also, these drives spin down, so they have issues with raid arrays.

Newegg's packaging of OEM drives has been very poor in the past. However, I think they have finally caught on. The last drive I received from them a few weeks ago arrived with appropriate packing.
