April 2012? By that time, a lot of prices have changed. It always pays to be prepared but not with tech.

HDD prices would have normalized by April 2012 I hope.


I forgot to mention the total price is £321.50, I hope that the HDD prices have dropped by the time i want to start getting the parts, i was thinking about getting a 60GB SSD, and getting a 250GB HDD for storage? I know i'm not going to be buying the parts until another 4 months but i just want to give myself an idea of how much it will all cost! Are all the parts compatiable? Thanks for the reply cutebeans.
