I must be the one guy that beats the odds. Everytime I buy anything from Best Buy more than a certain dollar amount, I get their warranty plan. In 10 years of buying TVs, radios, cameras and PC components, it has always paid off that after the factory warranty has expired and I have about 1 year left on the BB warranty, something goes wrong and I get it fixed (or replaced) for free. Without that warranty, my only option would be to buy a new one. $150 warranty for a $1500 item is worth it to me.

Then again, it's nothing more than insurance and luck of the draw if you'll ever have to use it.

Plus SAS is still primarily Enterprise class. If you're using SAS at home, you're an Uber-Power User or GEEK like myself.

I think it does depend on the level of service you get as well. Granted, most cable/dsl providers will ban large-scaled sharing, but if you are a bandwidth hog that has to purchase the biggest and best package available, then the same TOS doesn't apply.
