Hard Drives
- Hitachi 500GB Hard Drive for $45 with coupon EMCHDD10A
- Samsung 500GB Hard Drive for $45 with coupon EMCHDD10A
- Western Digital 640GB Green Hard Drive for $61 with coupon EMCHDD10A . Great reviews.
- Western Digital 750GB Green Hard Drive for $63 with coupon EMCHDD10A
- Hitachi 1TB Hard Drive for $67.50 with coupon EMCHDD10A . A great deal at about 6.8 cents per GB.
- Seagate 1TB Hard Drive for $81 with coupon EMCHDD10A . This two-platter model ending in "528AS" does not have the widespread firmware-crashing problems found in Seagate's "333AS" model (333GB per platter). This is a great deal on one of the best performing 1TB hard drives on the market.
- Western Digital Black 1TB Hard Drive for $90 with coupon EMCHDD10A . Rated one of the best, and has a 5 year warranty.
- Western Digital 2TB Green Hard Drive for $230 with coupon EMCHDD10A . A very good deal at 11.5 cents per GB.
The one coupon code can be used on more than one drive in a single order, but has a $10 savings limit and can only be used once per person. The "Green" drives operate at a slower 5400rpm speed, more energy efficient and give off less heat, but perform slower than a standard hard drive. Green drives are perfect for file storage (backups, MP3s, videos), but the operating system and applications will perform better if installed on a faster drive.

ZipZoomFly.com - Western Digital 1TB Hard Drive & $15 Card for $103 or $73 after rebate
Western Digital Black 1TB Serial-ATA Hard Drive for $103 with free shipping. A $15 Visa Prepaid Card is available by mail-in rebate form. Unlike ZipZoomFly, we do not consider this deal as $88 after rebate because a $15 Visa Prepaid Card is just like getting a gift card with an expiration date, rather than getting cash back which could be used toward paying off your credit bill.

If you choose eBillMe during checkout, they take $30 off the purchase price, making it $73. However applying for a new online credit is not recommended for someone thinking of leasing or financing something big for the next 6 months, or for someone looking to repair their credit.

Hard Drives
- Samsung 1TB Serial-ATA 5400rpm Hard Drive for $70 with coupon EMCLTMM28
- Hitachi 1TB Serial-ATA 7200rpm Hard Drive for $75
- Western Digital Green 1TB Serial-ATA 5400rpm Hard Drive for $90. Runs slower but cooler than a standard hard drive.

- Western Digital RE3 1TB Serial-ATA 7200rpm Hard Drive for $140 with coupon EMCLTMM37 . 5 year warranty. These RE3 drives can operate more reliability in a RAID configuration with data redundancy, such as RAID levels 1, 5, 6, and 10, but its TLER feature should not improve reliability in RAID-0.

eWiz.com - $15 off $100, code: SIZZLE15
Coupon SIZZLE15 gives $15 off any $100+ order. Cannot apply toward Western Digital drives.

Dell.com - two 1.5TB Hard Drives $200
Two-pack of Seagate 1.5TB Serial-ATA Hard Drives for $270 with free shipping, and coupon code MZ7$L7$7DCG5BC gives $70 off in the cart. A great deal at $0.07 per GB, but the drive has some negative reviews involving data loss. After receiving the drives, check with Seagate.com to see if a firmware patch is available to help prevent data loss.

ZipZoomFly.com - 1TB Hard Drive for $70
(expired)

(repost)

Hitachi 1TB Serial-ATA Hard Drive for $75 with free shipping, and coupon code ZZFHT805 gives $5 off. A great deal at 7 cents per GB. Delivery takes about 3-4 days for people in the western half of the US, and 5-9 days for the eastern half. If you need the drive quicker, Newegg sells it for $75 with 3-day shipping.

If you put 2 in your cart, the price comes to $140 after coupon. If you choose eBillMe, another $30 is taken off during checkout. At $110 for two 1TB drives ($55 each) it may sound like an incredible deal, however doing eBillMe is only recommended for someone who can pay off the entire balance quickly to avoid hefty finance fees. Also opening a new line of credit can negatively impact your short-term credit, so eBillMe is not recommended for someone thinking of financing or leasing a new car, motorcycle, home, apartment, or boat within the next 6 months. Also some credit card companies, such as AmEx, may raise your interest rate or possibly drop you as a customer if your credit rating drops even if you are in good standing with them. A credit rating is not something to mess around with these days, and knowing the risks can help save you far more in the future than the $30 you can save today.

Update (2pm EDT): No longer available, but available at Newegg for $5 more.

Hard Drives
- Western Digital 640GB Serial-ATA Hard Drive for $65 with coupon EMCLTLN34 . Rated one of the best performing hard drives on the market, and comes with a 5 year warranty (most hard drives have a 3 year warranty).
- Hitachi 500GB 2.5" SATA Hard Drive for Laptops for $85 with coupon EMCLTLN33
Media Drives and Card Reader Drives for Desktop PCs
- LG Blu-Ray Burner and CD/DVD Burner Drive for $150 with coupon EMCLTLN45 . Reads and writes to CDs, DVDs, and Blu-Ray discs. Not a bad deal for a Blu-Ray burner, since Blu-Ray reader drives cost around $90 to $110.
- Rosewill 3.5" Memory Card Reader Drive Bay for $10. Requires an available USB Header slot on your motherboard. If your computer case has USB ports on the top or front, then you may need to unplug them in place of this memory card reader drive, which is a worthy swap since a USB port is provided on this drive plus the benefit of a memory card reader on your computer.

(repost)

Hitachi 1TB Serial-ATA Hard Drive for $76 with free shipping. Delivery takes about 3-4 days for people in the western half of the US, and 5-9 days for the eastern half. However ZipZoomFly drives are packed in very nice & reusable foam coffins, the best drive packaging we have seen and useful when transporting or safely storing drives.

Newegg.com - deals on some DVD Burners and Media
Coupon code BHD5TWENTY9 gives 10% off of most DVD Burners and Media on their site, such as:
- LG 22x CD/DVD Burner for $21.59 after coupon
- LG 22x CD/DVD Burner with Lightscribe for $23.39 after coupon.
- slim Sony CD/DVD Burner for $45 after coupon. Meant for laptop computers with Serial-ATA media drives, and for some rackmountable servers.
- 100-pack TDK 16x DVD+R Media for $20.69 after coupon.
- 20-pack Verbatim Dual Layer DVD Media for $23.39 after coupon. It stores almost twice the data of a normal DVD, but at only 2.4x these can take about 45 minutes to burn a 8.5GB disc to capacity versus about 5 minutes for a 4.7GB regular DVD.

Newegg.com - 30GB Solid State Disk and $20 Visa Card for $119 after rebate
(expired)

OCZ Vertex Series 2.5" 30GB MLC Serial-ATA Solid State Disk is on sale today until 5pm EDT for $119 with free shipping. Most stores sell it for at least $130. A mail-in rebate is available for a $20 Visa Prepaid Card, which can be used to purchase up to $20 of other stuff. We do not consider this deal "$99 after rebate" because they require you to spend up to the $20 they put on the Visa card rather than giving you a check, meaning you would actually spend $119. This solid state drive is designed for use in laptops and computers with a 2.5" drive slot, has no moving parts so it does not skip or fail from bumps and drops, operates silently, consumes less power than a hard drive, and performs a little faster.
