1TB Hard Drive: on the cheap

Recently I wrote about a external hard drive that was 1TB and had a cost of $600.00. Well put that baby to bed because I'm going to save you some money with this one.

Starting today you can pre-order Lacie's 1TB external drive from J&R. The price? A lovely $290.00!!!

It doesn't look as good as the other one, but who gives a crap about that?
