Hehe, that's what my 400GB drive was going for when I won it. Oh how prices have come down!

Yeah, I've seriously been eying it, but decided that saving up for a new motherboard (with PCI-E) and a video card would be a better use of my money. I mean, my current 670GB is enough (even though it's usually all full), especially with my DVD burner.

I also think I'll just buy a couple 300's instead (better $/gb ratio) and throw them in a network slave.

Well, the Barracuda is meant for a different market. It's meant to offer large capacity first and foremost, followed by performance.
