So how's about you tell the world how much it cost, since not even the wootalyzer or wooters.us could figure it out...
So whadya say,
Do ya wanna be the hero of the day,
Well you'll have to prove yourself,
By reporting the price of the random billboard of community-elf...

not sure which you were looking at but the ones i saw on newegg were all 16 mb cache instead of 32

save for one which is listed at 94.99usd

Just got mine in the mail. Was it my imagination, or wasn't there supposed to be a cord included?

It seems one of the two drives I just wooted from this is crapping out on me already. I put it as part of an on-board raid in my desktop and errors are cropping up. Where should I start to diagnose if it's really the drive's fault and if so, start the dealing with the warranty process?

I bought one and attached it to an IDE/SATA board. It worked AWESOME for 1 week, than pooped on me when I was installing iTunes. Won't accept anything, even a reformat which goes slower and slower until it freezes while reformatting. yeay! :-\

To date: 14 woots, 23 items wooted!
Im here just to fart around... Maybe I should go back to work... =x

You do have a 180 day warranty with us, so please do email at service@woot.com. We do not have any more of these in stock, but we can have you send it back in for a refund.

Contacted service, told me to contact Seagate. Seagate won't respond to my emails. Should I contact Woot Service again for RMA or something? Thanks for the help :-)

Edit: contacted Woot again, they gave me RMA# and offered refund. yeay :-)

Unfortunately, my drive is starting to flake out. It will work for a while, then just stop and show as gone from the operating system. I can power off, wait a while, and power back on and it comes back to life before repeating the cycle. I attempted to contact Seagate to return the drive and they denied my request saying that it was an OEM drive and that I must contact whomever sold it to me. I am contacting Woot service and hoping for no hassles as I have never run into a problem with any of my previous Woot items. I am well within the 180 days (after a brief panic attack since I forgot how to count) so hopefully I can figure this out.
