Heya all. Thanks for your time. I recently realized that hard drives just took a 2-3x price increase.
Are there any reliable HDD brands that havent squeezed prices? I see the Western Digital Caviar Black for $70 on Fry, but the manufacturer is SPRINGS not WD. What does this mean exactly? Is it the exact same product with a different manufacturer?
Does anyone know of any other manufacturer's or brands that haven't experienced a quantum leap in prices?
