    Anyone see a better deal than this? (€89 delivered)

    There seem to be quite a lot of negative reviews about dud units and the European plug it comes with. :(

    I went for an iomega. It was a toss up between this and the 2 tb seagate ones from maplins.

    Peats was free shipping. Both have good reviews and reliability. Another thread might help.

    Or you could try here.

    Haven't bought myself nor have I heard of the seller before but 90€ for 2TB with eSATA seems decent

    Cheers all. Actually, that Verbatim one with the eSata otion does look pretty good - I don't see it online anywhere for less than about £110 plus p&p. It's for connecting to my (shiny new :D) Revo 3610, so an eSata connection would actually come in handy, and leave me an extra USB port free.
