or at least on newegg.com, i need to add more space to my computer and i want one of these 100 Gigers, bit not if i have to wait forever.


I have been thinking about picking up the WD 80 GB 7200 RPM drive, should i grab this now or wait for the 100 GB drives to come out ?




 
$355...OUCH!


I might have to go with the 80 GB'r or look for a lower price


A quick check on pricewatch showed only three people with this drive with cheapest shipped price being $284.


Hmmm.......Looks like i better wait for Staples to get this drive in so i can do a PM/Coupon
 
What are you going to be using the drive for? There will be somewhat of a speed difference between a 100 GB 5400 RPM and a 80 GB 7200 RPM drive.
 
(Probably) for archival and storage/temporary backup.

The only time (I'll) see a 7200 rpm ATA-100 100 GB drive come off the store shelf and into my shopping cart is when (they) hit $120 US 🙂.
 
I need the 100 GB drive for extra storage for all the video files i have on my computer.


Damn my pr0n addiction 🙂
