I like to check the price history on camel^3. Sometimes the price drops for
things are quite dramatic.

Wow, the bare drive is $223 ($24 more). That is very weird, no external enclosure for more cost. Cheaper to buy the USB enclosure
and extract the bare drive.

Nope, quite common. Basically the external drive is sold in a lot more
volume
by operations like Amazon.

Yep
