Default Samsung Spinpoint F1 - $135 shipped

Picked one of these up last week for $140 shipped, and a Samsung 1TB yesterday for $140 shipped, and then of course they drop the price again.

The Samsung is one of the fastest TB drives, as it's only 3 platters (super high density).

I tried to get Drew to buy that 1.5TB yesterday - he would have been the coolest geek on the block.

What's up with the falling prices? I'm not complaining, mind you, but in the past few month they've dropped a lot.

Edit: I can't imagine the platter makers are feeling that much heat from the solid-state boys yet.

I'm always surprised with the Samsung F1 drives in reviews. They don't always top the charts in the typical benchmarks, but everytime a reviewer does file copy tests the Samsung drives almost always come out on top. I might have to step out of my Seagate box and try something new next time I need a new drive. But hopefully by then SSD's will have become more mainstream.
