    11-8-2010 - the $15 rebate from Newegg has expired. However, the $64.99 price apparently is still valid as of this writing 12:26AM. For those who are interested in this HD at this price, Amazon is currently selling this HD for the same price w/ Super Saver shipping (free for slowest option).

    Please note: rebate price expires 11/7/2010. However, buyers have until 12/7/2010 to mail rebate form back to Newegg. This HD is the well-regarded Hitachi 7K500 repackaged; Hitachi often markets the same HD under several different model designations.
