my corsair ram rebate took about a month while my western digital hdd rebate took over 2 months the last time i bought shit. most black friday/cyber monday deals will involve rebates.
Thats a decent drive for the price, but most 16gb ones are insanely slow. No point in having 16gb of patheticly slow storage. The patriot xporter xt 16 and 32gb drives are about as fast as you can get on usb 2.0, and theyre very cheap as well.
But they all have that damn cap over the usb port that you loose right away.
