Hard drives are the one piece of computer hardware I know the least about. Is that a decent one?

The fixed the pricing mix-up already on these? (I'm assuming they must have mislabeled them... 80GB = $20, 120GB = $29, but 160GB jumped up to $80, and 250GB is at $120) The first 2 have no prices on them now, only shop via partner (which shows prices that are 4x to 5x higher)

I think whats more likely is that they had a surplus of the drives and decided to have a crazy sale on them to get rid of them, and they completely ran out, hence why they are referring to their partners who still have the drives on hand.


So yeah. Sale's over. Sorry :o

Lol, man that would be in 3-4 years time. Here in england, 500GB is around £50. But the currency is roughly double, so it's a $100.

Smaller drives are still useful for system drives. especially for fixed-use systems.
