Western Digital Drive: I bought this drive in February to use for an external iTunes library. I'm going with an internal drive now, so I don't need this one anymore and haven't used it for a month. It's in great condition and hasn't been moved since I set it up.

This drive has a quad interface: FW800, FW400, USB2, and eSATA 3Gb/s. I have all cables but I'm pretty sure I threw out the box. I can still pack this drive securely and ship you what cables came with it.

WD's site says the warranty on this drive extends to 2/26/2013. I never registered it, so it'll be a clean register for you.

WD retails the drive for $199, I've seen it at NewEgg and others for around $160. How's $120 sound with free shipping in the US? I can ship internationally but you'll have to help me out; I've rarely shipped anything outside the US.

Aperture 2: I was excited about the new version but the reality is that it's way too powerful for my needs. I have the original packaging and manuals, and the disc is in great shape.

Apple retails this full version of Aperture 2 for $199. How's $150 shipped in the US sound? Again, I can ship internationally, but you'll have to help me out.

By the way: I know this is a brand new account for me. I was "bedoughty" on these forums for a few years but I'm getting rid of that name at all the sites I visit. Since we can't change our names (for obvious reasons) I decided to just get a new account. Feel free to contact me with any questions or if you need pictures or other verification that I'm legit. In the interest of full disclosure, I write for Ars Technica and have a pretty public footprint; you can find me at quite a few social networking sites so I'm not exactly a ghost.

I just don't want anyone thinking I have bad intentions.
