1 Terabyte External Hard Drive $89.99 After Rebate

Want to have a good back-up of your computer and all your data, videos, photos, music and documents? Maybe you have a few laptops among your family and would like enough space to back them all up. Well, a 1TB system would give you enough space for now and even as PC memory needs expand down the line. Buy.com is currently selling the Fantom 1TB FD G-Force Hard Drive for $119.99, already a nice price. But for purchases by January 4th they also have a $30.00 mail-in rebate. Shipping is free, so that all brings your net cost down to a low $89.99 -- for 1 Terabyte of storage!

This drive features:
- Host Interface: eSATA\USB 2.0
- Capacity: 1TB
- Data Buffer Cache: 16MB
- Access Time: 8.5ms
- Drive RPM: 7200
- Bus Transfer Rate (Max): 60 MB/S (USB), 300MB/S (eSATA)
- OS Support: Windows 98SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Mac OS 10.2 or higher

Now, memory prices are sure to keep falling as they have (compare what you pay now for an 8GB USB drive to what you used to pay for 1GB a couple of years ago), but having a hard drive now and backing up your data might save you a lot of hassles if you encounter PC problems that jeopardize your system and data. And this amount of memory for under $90.00 may just be the point at which it's worth jumping in. To take a look at the drive and the details, click the picture below.
