Does anyone know where I can find a cheap Raptor? I'm looking for 2 so i can RAID them. Newegg got them for $140 but i thought, i'd give it a shot for a cheaper one

Ebay if you're comfortable.
If you already have a WD drive (any years) WD offer a "upgrade" program that allow you to buy their hard drive for cheaper. Just look in the WD knowledge base, it's there somewhere.

Damn, I already ordered it on Newegg, but I"m guessing at WD main site, it won't be as cheap as newegg though. Whatever, at least i'll be happy on Wednesday when my drives come :D

Depend of when you call them. Usually, they have very good price, better than Newegg. But sometime, when order are high, the price are just ok.
Also, doing this will void the memory of the drive you use to have this "upgrade". so try to find a out of warranty drive before doing this.
