    I went ahead and got this.

    I figure, no tax, free shipping. 60$ vs the 120$ of the wd 750 gb black with tax because Im in california

    This is just the best deal

    still waiting a week later. This is what free shipping means.

    What I hate about amazon is they say 3-5 days but that ignores how long it takes them to start thinking about shipping it.
