yes, awesome price, these drives are fast
$13.99 shipping here to QLD. Probably a better idea to remove the $9.99 from the title.
Delivery & Handling: $13.99 to SA
1TB F3 is $87 pickup from allneeds.
Damn expensive shipping, when buying multiple items.
SS know for ripoff postage!
Just letting you know that this isnt the F3 as you mentioned. This is the F1
HD103UJ is spinpoint F1
HD103SJ is spinpoint F3.I was very close to grabbing this as i am looking for a F3
Nice pick up. The item code is F1 but the spec description is F3. Very confusing. Fortunately I have not paid them yet.
In the item code it's listed as "HD103UJ" but in description it's listed as "HD103SJ"…. Yes really confusing in deed.
I think SS do this on purpose!
For those already bought it, if they send F1 return it and demand for F3!!!
SS is hardly bargain in my book. For those who don't know OzB then it is.
I love how they always have ridiculous "don't pay" prices. I wonder where they come up with them.
Would like to know which model it really is too.Probably manufacter's RRP.
But SS never discount when it release.
Can DaniloChan chime in and confirm whether this is F1 or F3 please?
He has to say F3 for people already bought it but not sure if you purchase in the next 12 hrs :)
They try to scam us but I won't let it happend.
I screen shot this just in case they turn around.
Title clearly show Spinpoint F3 "Samsung 1TB Hard Drive 'HD103SJ" HDD, 32MB Cache, 1000GB SATA II 7200rpm, Spinpoint F3"

F1 = 3 platters 333Gb ea spin speed 7200rpm
F2 = 2 platters 500Gb ea spin speed 5400rpm
F3 = 2 platters 500Gb ea spin speed 7200rpmI have the HD103UJ which died on me a while ago.
I have to admit that Samsung replacement process was completely painless. I did not have to provide anything except the HDD serial and sent it back and got a replacement in the mail.
My only issue with the HD103UJ is that it is really noisy "both in external case and inside PC".
I since bought a hot swap thingy for Sata from DX and just insert it when I need to copy stuff as I have bought it to backup my stuffs on it.I would not mind a quieter option if anyone knows of a cheap better option.
expensive shipping, conflicting model and crap price if its F1
How is $9.99 expensive?
It's $13.99 to SA, and other states.
$9.99 is very reasonable shipping
My experience with Shopping Square customer service is quite bad… so if this isn't that cheap then neg
I've asked and have received confirmation from shoppingsquare that it is F3 (HD103SJ).
I cant confirm that.
Also received feedback stating F3
I owned Samsung Spinpoint once, 500GB drive lasted 2mth before completely dead.
definitely keep away.LOL I replied to POWERevolution's troll and it disappeared before I posted it!
Anyways, Allneeds wants $14.90 shipping to SA and NSW (didn't check the other states) so it's only cheap if picking up locally. The shipping does seem steep, but what's the consensus on how much it should really cost?
Agreed. My Confirmation email states that an equipment order has been placed for the HD103SJ spinpoint F3 :)
They also confirmed on FB that it's the F3.
Damn good price for an excellent hard drive.
