    i bought one the other day for $175

    http://www.i-store.com.au/product/?CategoryID=14&productid=1…

    the drive is surprisingly quiet… i was replacing a green and i hardly notice any difference in noise…

    I suspect the SATA 6 drives are coming soon - like the Hitachi 7K3000 series at capacities of up to 3tb…

    • overlook on 02/05/2011 - 15:09

      there is SATA 6? i thought SATA 3 only released like last yr.

      on a side note: can this drive run on my old sata 2 mobo?

      • Timski on 02/05/2011 - 15:54

        This one is SATA 6…

      • ScuffedPanda on 02/05/2011 - 15:54

        SATA6 = SATA3. Its just how people refer to the sata series, either by revision (3) or by speed (6Gbps).

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_ATA#Terminology

        Also, your sata2 mobo should be forwards compatible as sata3 is not that different.

          Morons, your confusing him.

          SATA 3 has 6Gbit/s (GigaBit's per Second) of bandwidth.

          That's why idiots refer to it as "SATA 6", which is incorrect.

          Read the link in the comment to which you reply before calling people "idiots", lest you prove yourself to be one.

          if you ever go to uni, lecturer will tell you wikipedia is not a valid reference

        • TimeOrMoney on 02/05/2011 - 22:48

          If you ever go to a decent uni, a decent lecturer will tell you wikipedia is a good source of acceptable references.

          Fix'd.

          Or, if you aren't totally oblivious to those little numbers, you'll notice it yourself.

        thanks guys, we should always go by the revision! SATA 3 has 6

  • y12345678 on 02/05/2011 - 15:07

    would be a bargain if it's 3TB

      Agreed.

    $179.99 INCLUDING postage = great deal IMHO.

    My local independent (Megaware Computers) has them for $179.00 but - for the sake of $0.99 - I'll save myself the hassle of driving to the shop by ordering online and having it delivered to work.

    Thank you, OP!

      That 99c savings gonna come in real handy it fails under warranty etc, and you get to drive to the post office and queue up to post it back and forth.

        Your likely to be posting it to Singapore no matter who you buy it from.

        • Navi on 02/05/2011 - 15:41

          No way. You take it to where you bought it from. That's their job.

      • overlook on 02/05/2011 - 15:15

        would be even more handy if they claim you damaged the item by not packaging it properly. ie no bubble wrap, cautions on the packages…

    msy has had them at this price for months…

    WD 3.5" Black 2TB WD2002FAEX SATA3 7200rpm HDD Was $249.00 Now $179.00

      Its a great deal if you are 400 km's from your nearest msy like me ;)
      The free shipping is great value as mwave use AAE and I have always received my order the next day!

    Cheaper elsewhere Mwave yet again you proove yourself to be a step behind the game and you obviously love to spam your not so special specials

    • SKiZO on 03/05/2011 - 07:44

      That's a bit rough mate. These guys used to be my local when I lived in Sydney and always looked after me. Their prices consistently keep up with MSY and have about about a billion times better customer service than the MSY's in Sydney. With delivery this is definitely a good deal.

      The PCDIY shop down the road also is top-notch with customer service and pricing.
