not sure how good these drives are but I missed out on the staples seagate 3tb drives earlier this week. Anyone know what drives are in these?

I'm pretty sure you'll find a WD Green drive under the hood.

Yep, that's what mine came with.

ahh ok.

BTW to get the discount you need to checkout with V.me and its a single use, which sucks

Does the green drive inside have it's own warranty?

Do any WD external drives come w/ a black drive?

There is also a 4TB for $150

I have gotten 2TB blacks out of the my book essentials series, but those were a few years old.

Wonder if that's a single drive or 2 2TB drives. Looks like it's one drive, but I haven't seen any internal WD 4tb drives close to that price (unless you count Hitachi Deskstars).

Well, it looks like its gone, now they have a 2TB portable with USB3.0 for $107, darn tempting. I wish I could find a nice discount on a WD 2TB Black 3.5".

amazon has the seagate 4tb for 140 right now. check out the other thread for details

The Amazon one is back to $155, plus tax. I grabbed this 4TB for $150, running short on storage anyways.

EDIT: Got shipping confirmation on Outlook/Hotmail this morning and was greeted with this message from MS, "Be careful! This sender failed our fraud detection checks." Dat not good

I kind of suspect all's fine, but I hope that Microsoft update their fraud detection a bit.
