$229.. is dirt cheap. Which Fry's and do you happen to know how long that deal is running for?
 
Oh sweet. I moved to Indiana from Calfornia 10 years ago I didn't realize that they had Fry's here.

I'm headed down there ASAP.
 
i have 2-500gb seagate barracuda in a raid 1 (mirrored) configuration. the total cost, including a sweet anodized aluminum enclosure with BLUE backlit lcd info panel was about $1/gig. newegg has a kit with the drives and the enclosure for i think $499. highly recommended, as this is roughly 50% less than a comparable lacie setup. it works great and it is mirrored for backup.
