Which brand and which capacity you guys want?
I see what I can order

Hitachi SATA II 500GB ?
Seagate 7200.10 SATAII 250/300/500/750GB???
WD RE2 SATAII 250/320/500 ????

thinking of taking in 1 brand 1 capacity.... wack like 50 pieces or 100 pieces
if you guys want... then see price how much



WD RE2

500 GB, 3.0 Gb/s, 16 MB Cache, 7200 RPM
1.2 million hours MTBF
NCQ and RAFF
5-year warranty

1.2 million hours MTBF at 100% duty cycle. Best-in-class vibration tolerance. 5-year warranty. Just three of the reasons why WD RE2 drives are the world’s most reliable SATA drives.

MODEL: WD5000YS



NOTICE: Will be taking "orders" for 500GB Seagate 7200.10 or Western Digital WD5000YS

WD RE2 are 5yrs warranty too. So can compete with seagate's warranty length not a problem.

interested to know the pricing for the Seagates 7200.10... either the 250GB or 300GB... based on SLS prices, they're going for btwn $0.55 to $0.60 per GB... best bang for the buck...

the 500GB and 750GB going for more than $0.80 per GB... too rich for my rig...
