I predict a rush to try snap up the 4 or 5 units per store. Meh.

PE's chilled when it comes to stuff like this. I'll get there when they open and undoubtedly encounter no problems.

Can't see the dates on my phone, when does it start please?

 

[Awesum]

24-30 April

I doubt any branch will have stock.

Then you can get a "call-back" and you can get one when they have stock...

That's insane! Esquire is 3 or 4 grand!

The special is on from 25 to 28 April.
I'm gonna get me some storage... Replacing my bank of 2TB units in my Microserver for the 4TB units.
Really low cost per Gig now.

Why is this a big deal? I'd rather get two 3TB specials for R2k.

Pics of these drives existing? Can't seem to find any illogical designs of HDD's on google.

It's a good deal based on footprint storage, not just cost per Gb.
For two drive bays you will get 8TB of storage, not just 6.
So for a marginally more cost per Gb, you get 2TB more storage.
On a pure cost per Gb, the 3Tb deal is better of course.
I'm at a point where I need to increase my overall storage capacity and instead of getting a third Microserver, I'll just upgrade my drives to 4TB units. Overall more cost effective for me.
