    Microcenter has the Hitachi Travelstar 7K500 500 GB 7200 RPM hard drive for $59.99 with free in-store pickup. Even with sales tax, you would be looking at a price that's on-par or less than Newegg, which sells the drive for $64.99.

    If you want to ship, it's probably better to order from Newegg, as their shipping is only $0.99 vs Microcenter's $5.99.

    amazon still has it for 60 free shipping.

    not a sale just their constant price.

    took 8 days to ship to california. newegg would be much faster like 2 days.

    Great drive btw best deal out there unless the samsung mp4 is on sale
