    Hey guys. Newegg has the Western Digital WD5000BEVT 500GB 2.5" hard drive on sale again. This time for only $69.99 shipped. Killer deal. The WD5000BEVT has proven itself as a fast reliable hard drive. I have 2 in PS3's and one in my laptop and none have failed me yet. I just ordered another for my upcoming DM3T purchase.

    Deal Link.

    This is a great deal! It's about the same price as the 3.5 inch version.

    Great drive too. I picked up one of these for my T60, replacing a 7200rpm Hitachi drive of smaller capacity. It is snappier even though its 5400rpm.
