Be aware that Newegg provides only a 15-day return policy on "open box" hard drives, and they may not carry any manufacturer's warranty. While they are tested to be functional, there is a risk of quality in these drives. Drives which fail 15 days after purchase may incur a fee to fix.

- two for about $148 after shipping fee ($0.148 per GB), etc.
Most other stores sell 500GB drives for $85 to $110.

If you live in the Central or Eastern half of the US, 2-day shipping costs only about $1 or $2 more when buying these drives. ZipZoomFly orders can take about 6 business days to arrive to the Eastern half of the US, so it may be worth the 2-day shipping upgrade.

Note, this hard drive is noticeably louder than most other manufacturer's drives. If noise is a concern, look for another manufacturer's drive.

It comes as a bare drive only, without any cables. An internal Serial-ATA cable is $0.73. If your computer is not Serial-ATA drive ready, a Serial-ATA cable with Molex-to-SATA Power Adapter is $1.35, if needed. Shipping adds about $0.50 if you add one of these to an order with a hard drive.
