Since it's that time of the year, I thought it'd be great to have a thread to keep track of any good deals on storage, cpus, etc.!

First one I've found is 3TB Reds for $90 after rebate and after $20 V.me discount.

Details:
TigerDirect.com has 3TB Western Digital Red 3.5" SATA III Internal Hard Drive (WD30EFRX) for $139.99 - $30 rebate = $109.99. Shipping is free.
Save an additional $20 off $100 or more on purchases when paying with V.me by Visa during checkout, making your total $89.99 after the rebate.

Thanks! It's very useful information.
Please keep us informed if you'll find new discounts, I'd like to buy new MB on Black Friday

I bought two WD 3TB Reds from TigerDirect at the end of October because the rebate is limeted to two drives.
I tried buying two more yesterday to keep as spares. My order was placed on hold and after phoning them I was told that you can only buy two drives a month (30 day period) from them. This is not linked to the rebate. I had some choice words for them.

Wow- they actually have a filter in their system that does that? crazy!

Yeah, it is actually even a little more complicated. I actually place two orders of single drives. One from home and one from work after deciding that it is better to be on the safe side and having two spares. Anyway the hold was placed because of the two IP addresses. So after I cleared that part over the phone I was told about the secondary quantity hold. That was also about the time I send them to hell and bought a spare from Newegg. One of my drives is throwing errors so I am kind of in a hurry...

Watch out for the WD Red 3TB deal. Newegg has had them for $120 for the last few days with free shipping. With Amazon charging sales tax in more and more states (my state, CT, just started on the 1st of November), you need a pretty good deal even if you are a prime member (i.e., free shipping). For me, the drives would have to run about $110 to make it the same deal as Newegg, delivered (here's hoping for 99.99!)

Good price, but 7200RPM drives are... not necessarily a recommended choice for home NASes. Too much heat, too much power usage, etc.

It's true that 7200rpm drives aren't the ideal choice for my application (or most people!), but I foolishly bought them to start with so I will need spares at some point.

Eh?

Cyber Monday!
I know this is not the best deal ever, but SuperBiiz is seling Intel i3-4330 for $116.98 after $15 promo discount and shipping. I just grabbed one for my backup server build.
