WD 2TB External $70; Shell Shocker

What is the failure rate on these bad boys?

And are the 2TB versions faster than the 1TB drives do the number of platters?
 
Amazon is price matching this, but with a Green inside I can't bring myself to bite.
 
Amazon price $96.99
Amazon quote:
"Pricing
We offer you consistently low prices on every item in our store. With the exception of Televisions, we do not price match with other retailers. We do not have bulk order discounts."
 
I don't know what to say about that, but I looked earlier and the 2tb was 69.99 I promise.

edit: It still is, use the link from this page and it works.

Yeah, that was my point, I never ask Amazon to price match but I do notice that sometimes they price match silently.
 
Thanks for the heads up. I was able to order one from Amazon during the price match at $69.99. They are temporarily out of stock but mine will ship on the 20th which is fine by me (I am in no rush). Hope they don't cancel the order.
 
Not a bad deal, been looking for a 2tb sale. Missed the Amazon price match so I ordered from Newegg, got it today.

Thanks for the post, wouldn't have seen it otherwise.
