What's the URL you got from Dell? Looks like it's more than bare bone drive
(since it's "cabled hard drive.") I just went to Dell and here are some
sample URLs:

1) 1TB 7200 RPM Hot Swappable Serial ATA II Hard Drive for Dell PowerEdge 2900 Server
for $148.99 (with tray).

2) 1TB 7200 RPM Serial ATA Hard Drive for Dell Vostro 220/ 430 / Studio XPS 8000 Desktop
for $120.99

3) 1TB Caviar Blue SATA 3 Internal Hard Drive for $83.99
