How to get a New 80GB Barracuda ATA IV for $83 SHIPPED

[Clocker]

Go to the Dell Home Peripherals web site:

Seagate 7200RPM 80GB hard drive=$131

Use Stackable Coupon Codes:
- $10 37F6A0853A3
- 10% D34BCAC91D2A
= $108 shipped!

Use the $25 Mail in Rebate http://www.tigerdirect.com/sectors/Rebates/PDFs/THD-80AAP-APRIL.pdf (it does not specify where you should buy the drive from) and you are down to $83!

I have mine. What a value. ~$1 per Gig!

Hey, not to be a pain, but can you post the link to the drive, that's a good price for 80 GB. I can't find it on Dell's page, they don't list selling seagate??

Did you actually get it for the price you mentioned after the tiger rebate???

Doug-

I just mailed in the $25 rebate but I got the drive for $108 with the instant coupons and free ship.

It looks like they are not stocking the 80GB model at this time. They must have sold out fast.

THey still have the 60GB but the $25 rebate is only good for the 80GB drive. It looks like you can get out the door with the 60GB drive for $87 including the two coupons above.

Good luck and keep watching for the 80Gigger to come back.

BTW: This drive is DAMN quiet. Quieter than I ever expected. I can barely hear it seek unless I put my ear right next to the case. No whine at all either. Nice for a 7200 rpm drive.

They sure are. We just bought our first Cuda ATA IVs, 40GB ones, and had some fun listening to them. Or not listening to them, more to the point.

Quieter than a SP2001H?

That's still a decent price for 60 GB, but I like the 80 GB deal better. I'm going to watch them from now on. :) Thanks for sending a heads-up on this. I'm looking for some mass storage to hold all my crap and SCSI is too $$$ for large storage. :)

I thought you were diametrically opposed to anything with the name Barracuda ATA on it???

Yes Buck. At least I think so. I'll check them side by side on Monday. Unless I forget.

That $25.00 coupon at Tiger is valid *ONLY* for drives purchased through Tiger Direct. Don't think this offer will work as expected...

Have you made that comparison yet? :D
