cheap external hard drive!?

Question

I was searing on the net for a cheap external hard drive and i came across the Hitachi Touro Mobile MX3 1TB Portable External Hard Drive 2.5" USB 3.0 HDD Black, link here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hitachi-Touro-Mobile-MX3-1TB-Portable-External-Hard-Drive-2-5-USB-3-0-HDD-Black-/261096591006?pt=UK_Computing_HardDrives_RL&hash=item3cca91ce9e#ht_2567wt_1265
I am curious to whether this is a genuine hard drive because it is so cheap, would someone please identify it and tell me what you think. (I have never bought an external hard drive before)

Answer 1

From a quick look at the buy it now price i am guessing its a fake! no way can you get a 1tb drive for that price. If you do want to try and buy it then use paypal! that way you are protected and its only a small risk.

Answer 2

looks fake... if your looking for a cheap way to make a external hhd. if u have an extra laptop hard drive laying around just buy this http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-2-0-2-5-SATA-External-Hard-Drive-HD-Enclosure-Case-/300585186949?forcev4exp=true i got one a few weeks ago and it works great i have not had a problem with it

Answer 3
