I've always bought OEM drives, no problem. Mine have always arrived
well protected, but I have only bought one drive in the last 4 years
or so. Guess it depends on the merchant.

I bought one from newegg.com a coupla weeks ago for $90, free
shipping no tax, and it took 3 min sitting at the computer, no gas, no hassle.
I was just looking at Amazon, the $85 Seagate looked like a good
deal, but why only 3 stars on customer ratings? It seems that they
had a firmware problem in the drives and many of them bricked themselves.
I also noticed a review on Amazon that suggested a lot of the cheap
drives were OEM not retail, and the bozos were shipping them
unpadded via Fedex and UPS.
What's a good price on a retail box 1TB drive these days?
