I believe the membership fee is $30/yr. And there are LOTS of great
products/deals at Costco. Plus they are extremely pleasant to work
with, and have a no-time-limit, no-questions-asked return policy.

Oh, and these drives have an 8MB buffer, too. (and I believe the
controller cards are $40-60 if purchased separately)

Also they have 512MB PC2700 DDR RAM for $85. Not a bad deal either.
