Amazon reviews for it are interesting, to say the least.

Terrible reviews, also requires the use of two usb ports.

Check Slickdeals often. Dell was selling a 650GB external 2.5" HDD a couple days ago for 49 bones, free shipping.
Although I don't know the details of you 500Gig drive. -
Also, why do you think it requires 2 usb ports? It does come with a 2 usb port cable, most of these drives do. But that is mainly meant for laptops that have weak power supplied at the USB ports, aka MacBooks. For use as a DVD replacement drive on a Z11, that doesn't even matter.
Anyways, too late now. -
The reviews I read said it needed two USB ports (Amazon reviews).
It was on the slickdeals front page, which is for the best deals available at the time. When I went back, it had been pulled.
Thanks for the info, but this doesn't seem like a deal that's too good to be true. -
500GB drive for $30
