As far as I can tell, this is the lowest price this drive has ever been offered for.

Down to $164.99 today.  I picked up two (more).  Looks like HDDs might be starting to return to pre-flood prices.

I'm about 200GB away from needing another harddrive, but I can probably also just clean my current ones up a bit and make more room. I'm hoping that prices drop a little further before I have to break down. Not that I think 165$ is particularly expensive for 3TB of storage in one drive but we have been very spoiled with the pace of hard drive capacity and ive gotten used to it
