PC Show 2009 External Hard disks
Price has fallen as compared to the previous fair, in just over the 3 months! Let's see what's the difference..250GB 2.5" practically phased out from market with 32ogb and 500gb as the mainstay.
Buffalo HDD
New Drive Station 1.5TB Released
Freecom HDD
Surprisingly, Freecom prices maintained pricing as per last show in March'09
Fujitsu HDD
In fact, Fujitsu marked up by $10 bucks as per advertised. I remembered seeing slashed price at the fair, so I presume it will be lower, i hope.
Imation HDD
One of the few still selling 250gb HDD at the market.
Maxtor HDD
**Seems like the name is fading off from the market**
Ovation HDD
Ovation & Western Digital
Samsung HDD
Samsung is definitely trying to clear her 250gb goods too. Price drop is evident for its 2.5" HDD with 500gb the most, from $219 down to $179 !
Seagate HDD
I don't remember Seagate selling desktop version of its hdd the previous fair. But yes, new 2TB on the market now. Price drops for its FreeAgent Extreme & Desk, but not its 320gb 2.5" hdd
Toshiba HDD
$89 for a 250gb is the cheapest 2.5" external portable HDD for now.
Western Digital HDD
Generally price adjustments to meet new fair demands =) Anyway, 2TB product releases and WD Shareplace. Interesting.
The 5 years warranty is definitely the big draw here. And WD has elegantly changed its portable range of product, as compared to the previous fair!
