This week's winner is Adul S. of Chicago, IL

Here we go again with another installment of the weekly Crave giveaway. This week's gadget: the Seagate 500GB Blackarmor PS 110, a pretty sweet external hard drive from Seagate.

In case you're wondering what CNET really thinks about it, CNET editor Justin Yu has given the recently released PS 110 high marks. He says, "A sexy slim design and backup software set make a compelling argument for the Seagate BlackArmor PS 110 external hard drive" (read the full review here).

Normally, the Seagate 500GB Blackarmor costs about $150, but you have a chance to get one gratis.

So, how do you try to win a free Seagate Blackarmor PS 110? Let me enumerate the basic rules. Please read them carefully; there will be a test.

  • Register as a CNET user. Go to the top of this page and hit the "Join CNET" link to start the registration process. If you're already registered, no need to register again.
  • Leave a comment below. You can leave whatever comment you want. If it's funny or insightful it won't help you win, but we're trying to have fun here, so anything entertaining is appreciated.
  • Leave only one comment. You may enter this specific giveaway only once. If you enter more than one comment, you will be automatically disqualified.
  • The winner will be chosen randomly. The winner will receive one (1) Seagate 500GB Blackarmor PS 110. Approximate retail value is $150.
  • If you are chosen, you will be notified via e-mail. Winners must respond within three days of the end of the contest. If you do not respond within that period, another winner will be chosen.
  • Entries can be submitted until Monday, July 6, at 12 p.m. EDT.
And here's the disclaimer that our legal department said we had to include (sorry for the caps, but rules are rules):

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. MUST BE LEGAL RESIDENT OF ONE OF THE 50 UNITED STATES OR D.C., 18 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER AT DATE OF ENTRY INTO SWEEPSTAKES. VOID IN PUERTO RICO, ALL U.S. TERRITORIES AND POSSESSIONS AND WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW. Sweepstakes ends at 12 PM EDT on July 6, 2009. See official rules for details.

Good luck.
