Barely warm in that case, I'd say...

Yep, refurb. At least it's a 7200.10...

Bummer about the refurb. I was thinking this would have been a great drive for a new external drive.

interesting that the picture show a teal bear around the label.. The seagate drives only have teal when there refurbs.

Still a nice price

EDIT: OHH LOOK it even says refurb!

EDIT: Nervermind. YOU DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT A CODE!?!?! LOL we're good now. I'm in for one. I've never had an IDE drive fail, only sata.

ONLY 8 Meg of Cache. Money is better spent elsewhere.

Hot deal if you want a cheap backup solution. Not hot if you are looking for a reliable drive (refurb) with warranty.

Today I saw Bestbuy have the 750GB PATA ST3750640A-RK for clearance at 168. It was the 16MB Cache version. Too bad the SATA wasnt on clearance otherwise I would have gotten it. The web site listed it as 282 but the store has it for 168.
