Outpost.com - 500GB Serial-ATA Hard Drive for $100
(expired)

Seagate 500GB internal Serial-ATA hard drive for $100 with free shipping. Runs a little louder than a Western Digital 500GB which costs $5 more and has similar performance.

Another hard drive deal. Western Digital 500GB 5400 to 7200 rpm for $95 after coupon EMCACABA . It performs slower than the Seagate and Western Digital 500GB drives mentioned above, no factor for storing music and videos, but if performance is important best to spend a few dollars more for a faster drive.
