They do that, gotta figure give away 50 or 100 drives at a lost, and all 
the hype and people telling their friends will get some eyeballs that 
will bite and spend the full $250+

That and you get people coming back the site to check for other "deals".

Likely just a mistake at that price, but we all know how companies sell 
things like printers at a loss and recoup it in toner/cartridges etc. 
Heck, even a 4L bag of milk usually costs less than a store pays for it 
to get you to buy other stuff like chips and candybars...
