Sweet... the costs have not fallen here yet..
It still costs around $100 for 1 TB

I'm confused, I still see $99 when I use that link.

Showing $99.99 for me as well

 

[carguy]

$99 for me now. I hate computers

 

[Dave_W]

In the past this price of $99 has never lasted longer than a day and tomorrow it will be back to $118 or $128, if history is any indication of the future.

Showing $109.99 for me now. Sometimes it all depends on who is selling it at Amazon. This time Amazon is selling it directly. Still a great price!

You would think that would be the case but surprisingly it's not, they're all coming from Amazon itself. For whatever reason Amazon will drop the price for 8 to 16 hrs and then bring it back up. It may well be a computer program that automatically drops the price when their inventory hits a certain number or ? But either way, the price changes are not due to different sellers. Weird, huh?

Dave, just how many TBs of storage do you have now?

 

[Dave_W]

I'm sitting on 9 Tb's at the moment. Granted much of it is redundant but I'm looking now for an external to take with me to Glacier later this month.

I bought a 1TB WD drive recently that will fit in a shirt pocket. It can go in a camera bag without taking up much room. They are expensive by your standards. they run about $65 or so.
