Looking for 100GB or 120GB drives for upgrades!

Hey all.

I just purchased three SA TiVos off of eBay...they're going to loaned out to friends and family, so they can stop looking at me funny when I gush about TiVo.

I'm going to upgrade the drives by replacing the A's completely with 100 or 120GB drives, and I'm looking for a reliable source. I don't want to use 60's or 80's...I want 100+ hours on each one with the option to add a second drive as a simple drop-in later.

The best price I've found so far is $110 for a 100GB drive at tigerdirect.com...it's a good price, but I'd rather have 120's, and I'd rather pay $1 per GB tops. Does anyone know where I can beat this? And preferably without rebates, since I want three and don't want to have to recruit friends to receive checks for me.

Thanks, everyone!

--Chris

I've tried both pricewatch and pricegrabber, as well as staples, officemax, office depot, newegg, amazon, tigerdirect, fry's, best buy, circuit city, and compusa. I only looked as far as I knew to, though...maybe I missed something in terms of special unadvertised deals or (ugh) rebates.

There's a cheap ($103) 100GB drive on pricegrabber, but the seller is new and the website is sorta shady-looking.

Shoulda picked up more of those 120GB's from Circuit City. Even without the rebate, $130 was still a good deal.

Try www.gogocity.com. They have both the Maxtor 5400RPM and IBM 7200 RPM, 120GB drives for $135. I have purchase lots of PC parts from them without any problems. Their prices are always good.
