It's Best Buy. Most people probably live within 15 minutes of a Best Buy store. Just buy this. When it arrives, leave it in the box unopened. If a better deal comes along, buy that instead, and return this one to Best Buy. They'll accept the return without any hassle since it's unopened. And the factory seal being intact means they can put it right back on their store shelves so you impose minimal cost to the store as well.

That turns this problem from you saying "damn, I should've waited for a better deal", into Best Buy saying "damn, we should've offered a better sale price."

My guess would be they're trying to say "not for laptops" cause if they just list the size in inches people will still be like: "will this fit in my laptop."

Quote from ndnguy85 :
I saw someone online use 1 coupon to buy multiple new drives....

...I got two coupons. Key is to be nice to the agent!!!
It is a highly YMMV thing. In the BestBuy near me, after The rep generated the coupon, he needs the manager to ok on the order system to apply the coupon. So one has to go through two hoops to get it done and any one of them might say no to trade more than one drive. On The other hand, I suppose if both didn't care to read the fine print, one might get away with one coupon for multiple drives.

If anybody is still looking, I was able to call Best Buy customer service and have them order me two of them to delivery. The BB app and website both show "not available in your area" so I thought I was out of luck. Now I'm trying to decide if I should keep them or use the 14tb easystores that I bought as a backup plan? Anybody have any thoughts? Thanks.

Which setup is better for NAS? One 8TB or Two 4TB?
If your enclosure supports 8tb the single drive solution will leave you with a clearer upgrade path

Wow im surprised how well these prices have held up. I picked the WD Easystore back in July 2017 for $160. Kinda shocking these haven't gone down in value.

Just bought 4 of these from Newegg and 2 ended up being DOA. You may be paying a bit more but may get better luck.

Called CS and was polite to the rep. Got them to deliver one to me despite it being OOS online. YMMV but I'm happy I got in on the deal late Smilie
