Last time this drive was for sale on frys.com it was actually a Seagate 7200.10 drive that was 320gb. it was listed as a maxtor 300gb... I picked one up for $60 and it was a great deal considering it is a rebadged seagate with the same 3 year warranty and its fast! of course I cant say...

not a big deal at all...... considering what they charge for final value fees

my box also said "new 3 year warranty!!" so no need to worry about the 1-year only maxtor warranty

Ordered drive on Sunday, arrived today (Tues) It is in fact a 7200.10 ........

I would get an Onkyo 5.1 5x65w amp that only $119. Retail $200. Its the SR302 and it has digital optical in and has sub outs and hookup for 5 surround speakers. THESE receiver is really nice. Listen to godsmadclown. I bought one on his advice and right now I'm getting a digital sound...

I have had the sony EX-71s, and many other earbuds. The best earbuds BY FAR are Shure or Etymotics. You can get a nice pair of Shure E2Cs for about $60 on ebay. I bought mine a little over a year ago for about $90. It was the best $90 Ive ever spent. These buds blew away my Grado...

Hello, I have an Onkyo SR302 5.1 amp with optical (digital) in. I am looking to get a sound card that has digital out with optical. What is the best sound card out there thats under $150? Something that would be really good quality for my receiver and speakers. -scott

Grado SR60 or SR80 for cans Shure E2Cs for in-ear

Bought the Onkyo receiver for $119 (woot free shipping too!)..... Might go with the Fosgate monitors or a traditional 5.1 speaker setup. Is the Onkyo receiver (65w/ch) going to be enough to power the Fosgates? They are 200w

I read the thread about the Fosgate monitors. They look like a great buy for $144. With the Onkyo amp for ~120, thats only $264. I'm going to order these, and if I feel like I need a sub or surround speakers I will go with those. Does anyone know if the Onkyo receiver supports SPDIF? My...

Ive been considering an amp/receiver and some nice bookshelf-type speakers. Im not really an audio-guru, but I think I could pick out a good set of bookshelf speakers and a receiver for $500. Although, I do like my 4.1 setup now. I think I would miss the "dual stereo" setup. Sure MP3s...
