External Drive Size

Thanks Kenny...just wanted to confirm. While I'm a longtime customer of OWC & I almost always recommend them...they don't exactly have the best deal this time around with what you're purchasing. I got my 2 x 2TB 7200rpm drives for $55 each ($110 for both) + one swappable dock ($30). Grand total = $140.

And looking online...the 2TB 7200 rpm drives could be gotten for even less than I paid for them (locally).

Just an FYI.

Nick, that's a great deal for 140. I don't feel to bad though, I paid 198 with an extra base included. As you know you can chase your tail forever looking for deals. Locally not to much here not complaining just has gotten to a point that online works for me most of the time and OWC has a great reputation but doesn't mean the best price either.

As long as you're happy with your purchase Kenny...that's all that matters.

Was only pointing out that you could probably get the exact same items (same hard drives & same hard drive dock) for probably $50 or more less than OWC....from other online retailers. I've been an OWC customer for over 20 years...and I almost always recommend them. But if I can get the exact same thing somewhere else...I got to to go for the lower price ($50+ dollars saved isn't chicken-feed).

My understanding is that B & H Foto & Electronics Corp. 420 9th Ave, New York, NY 10001 has become a great source with excellent pricing and often free delivery, at least for US clients. And especially for East Coasters I would think.

I have no connection with them, nor have I used them.

But they have a good price on the Newer Docks, as well as some other model selection choices:
