I have no idea why this drive is cheaper than same size and brand drives
that have 32MB cache. I am trying to figure out if there is something
obvious I am missing that is making this drive come in at close to pre
flooding price but can't seem find it. I have placed an order for one myself
but would like to see if others think this is a good deal or not.
