DEALS: Verbatim 3.5" 3TB USB 3.0 Hard Drive for R1099
Incredible connection has an external 3 TB hard drive on sale for R1099.
I just bought this drive. It has one annoyance: it appears as 2 drives (2.2tb and 800gb). Not two paritions. Two physical drives. The following software can apparently sort out the issue though: http://www.verbatim.com.au/en_AU/products/hard-drives/desktop/47673/3-5-store-n-save-desktop-hard-drive-usb-3-0-3tb/drivers/asset/8231
Was not a mistake - like AQP mentioned it was a 'One Day Only' sale. They advertised it all over twitter and FB since the 26th already.
Was not an online-only deal. Offer was available in stores as well.
They also had a free shipping offer on 27/02/2013 for all online orders, but this was never implemented properly at checkout. Make sure you phone them up and get them to action a refund for the delivery fees!
