Are the best deals on external drives, at the moment, from the Incredible Connection special posted above?

I think that Makro has a 1TB Toshiba external selling for R499 at the moment. You could also try Game and Rebeltech ...

Wow that's cheap... thinking of getting that... anyone have one? Any reviews?
There's no model number on their website so emailed them to ask them what model it is...

Got the R99 8GB USB drive from IC, about the only time I'll buy there...

Was at Makro over the weekend, they have a Toshiba 1TB 2.5" (portable) external for R899 - can't find it on their website tho.

The weekly Cyberdyne special [rul=http://www.cyberdyne.co.za/promo/MailShot250.jpg]here[/url].

WD 3TB Caviar Green + Highpoint RocketRaid PCI-Express controller for R1704.30 (R1495 ex vat).

Would've been nice if they offered two drives and the controller

You might need the controller to handle 3TB drives.

This one is almost half the price but it is much bigger and needs an external power source so it comes down to what suits you the best...

You can't compare a 3.5" External drive with a 2.5" drive..
That 1TB 2.5" is priced very very well..

Why not?

Why not?

2.5 drives have always been more expensive, as they have to cram the GB's into a smaller chassis using similar tech to the 3.5 drives.

For me it boils down to what I need it for, versus cost

So I assume you need it for portability and being able to plug it into your laptop without a power cable?

I know many people have been looking for the Coolermaster Hyper 212+ cpu cooler. All online retailers in SA are currently out of stock but I was able to pick up one at Cafe Viva in Claremont for R249. To be able to get hold of one in SA at present and at a much cheaper rate is a realt steal. They have 3 or 4 more in stock. G0g0g0g0g0g0g0g0!
