    Seagate Momentus ST9750420AS 750GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive - $74.99 with free shipping

    Edit:
    Not in the mood to make a new thread, so you can still get the above mentioned for $74.99 with this code:
    EMCKEHK37
    Link for the lazy:
    Newegg.com - Seagate Momentus ST9750420AS 750GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Notebook Hard Drive -Bare Drive

    Valid thru 5/22. You cannot stack the code that is currently on the page, it's only $5 savings ($79.99), so the code I posted above is better. That "New Customer" Promo may also work (for new customers only)..but you might now be able to stack.

    Didn't the title tell you that it was a Seagate before you entered the thread?? :p :rolleyes:

    Seagate works for some, doesn't for others..same thing for Samsung, WD, Hitachi etc..

    This is a pretty good drive. Not as fast as the WD Black 750GB 7200RPM but good enough for use as a primary drive. Definitely faster than most notebook drives sold. $75 shipped is a great price, thanks for posting the deal.

    That and since the WD Black is $110, it's not nearly $35 faster. ;) There's nothing wrong with Seagate hard drives, period.
