Staples is having a sale, starting Sunday the 19th, on Maxtor Hard Drives for only $39.94 after instant savings and rebates. There are other deals to be had as well, but this was the first that caught my eye:

Talk about a lack of details on that thing. Surely it's not SATA. If it were, it would be mine. :lick:

Well if the picture is the real item then it is SATA, you can see the port a bit. But I wouldn't go by that.

EDIT: I searched for the item numver on the Canadian site and got back some specs:
