hard disk price

Good news for people who were planning to buy new HDD for their computer or upgrading their laptop HDD. Recent survey tells that Desktop hard drive prices fell to $51 in the third quarter of 2007, compared to $52.75 the previous year while notebook HDD fell to $53 from $86. the reason behind is the tough competition between all major HDD manufacturers like Seagate , Western Digital, Samsung, Hitachi etc. Also the flash memories are also to be blamed for any further drop in price of HDD as people have came to know the benefits of using SSD even if they have less storage space to offer at present.
