ioSafe cuts 40% off its ioSafe Firesafe Solo or Rugged External Hard Drives via coupon code "HOTAUGUST12". The same coupon also bags free shipping. That's the first such deal we've seen from ioSafe, yielding several price lows. Prices start at $149.99 for Rugged hard drives and $179.99 for Solo hard drives. Deal ends August 31.

A best bet is the ioSafe Solo 2TB USB External Hard Drive (pictured), model no. SL2000GBUSB20, for $399.95 before the above coupon, $239.99 with free shipping after ($0.12/GB). That's $10 under our February mention of a similar IoSafe Solo 2TB hard drive and the lowest total price we could find by $60. This drive runs at 7200 rpm and is purported to be disaster-proof against fire or flood.
