When talking about notebook drives, Western digital in particular...
what is the difference between "BEKT" and "BJKT" besides the "fall sensor"?
BEKT = without
BEJT = with
I ask this because I've found 320GB 7200rpm drives for 69.99 W/ sensor then 84 dollars w/o. This doesn't make any sense to me unless the "BJKT" (w/sensor) takes some sort of performance hit.
Re: +rep if you can answer this
There is no difference between them besides the Free Fall sensor, page 2 of the western digital supports this thought//

It is simply just the free fall sensor.
It's like JFK announcing the moon mission. He had no expertise in space travel, and no way of knowing if it would work. He just announced "we're going to the moon" and then they made it happen because everyone was on the same page and working towards the same goal. If he had said "well, let's get some people in space, and we'll see how far out we can get, and if I find someone to make a rocket strong enough, we could possibly approach the moon's orbit and maybe land" it wouldn't have happened.

Most likely there is a surplus of stock with the fall sensor, which is why its cheaper.
Also, there are always people who are hesitant to buy new products that havent really been proven, so there might be some reflection of that in the price too.

...I'm getting tired of not being able to figure this crap out because it's apparently made for computer-illiterate people by computer-illiterate people. lol
Re: +rep if you can answer this
Sure do.
eBay 69.99 w/free shipping
mwave 69.99 +tax + ~$7.00 shipping
ZZF 75.99 + tax w/free shipping (beats mwave's deal by almost a dollar)
I used eBay. After CA tax $76.46
EDIT: Another deal through ZZF if you don't mind MIR's or Hitachi drives. I'd rather pay the extra money for the WD Scorpio Black though.
EDIT: Thought I'd letcha guys know that "techtreasure" on eBay = MWAVE. I got an e-mail from Processing@mwave.com saying my order has been verified and is being processed... scared the hell outta me because I didn't buy anything from mwave but I checked my order status and it showed the 69.99 w/free shipping that I got through eBay.
