Those are nice drives -- their performance has certainly impressed me! Nice catch.

So even after the promo code they're still more expensive than the Amazon links I posted here:

$169.99 http://homeservershow.com/forums/index.php?/topic/3604-seagate-3tb-drive-19999-fs/page__view__findpost__p__37596

and here:

Any reason these wouldn't work in a raid 5 on a HP RR 2720sgl?

Looks like the price continues to drop http://www.amazon.co.../dp/B005T3GRLY/ at $159.99 now!

 

I only have one of these (so Far) -- it is a really nice (and fast) drive.

 

Check my performance of the 3TB Seagate's at http://homeservershow.com/hp-microserver-n40l-build-and-bios-modification.html

 

it;s on a SATA II port so a SATA III would be even faster!

Well, I won't have time to build an array any time soon so I will hold off on buying four of these for now. Hopefully I may have time in May.

Dang! That would save me $80. Off to newegg to make a purchase.

 

PS Will these work in WHS v1?

[jmwills 284]

Absolutely maybe! I believe V1 will only see a max of 2TB in any one volume but I have no idea about adding them to a pool.
