It seems a good price so heat from me :)
Wouldn't that be a better buy for £10 more or is that too much for the move to USB 3
(applies to those who have USB 3)
No overheating problems, unlike certain Seagate drives.

Can you specify the link for the USB 3 version that is £10 more??

Quick time machines at the ready everyone ;)
Ahh the so useful comments about how something was £x days/weeks/months/years back, like it helps the people now. We'd be forever waiting for things to fall an price and every deal would be voted cold as it either has been cheaper or will be cheaper in the future.
