If you are going to buy a hard drive from Newegg (or the A-people - they're really bad, too), cross your fingers and pray it gets to you in one piece and - if you're really lucky - they might have someone working that day that has a clue about packaging hard drives!
Nice price; great drive when they work
They are sold and shipped by Newegg, the packaging disaster experts; Newegg loves to toss hard drives like this in a big box with hardly any packaging so they can bounce around and get damaged in shipping and you have to pay to send them back; Trust me, I know.
