$200 is pretty darn steep for a terabyte now (may the technology gods bless moore's law) a more reasonable price might be less than half that... erm.. £50 or so (for a random drive from a common retailer), so $80? --[[User:Dr-spangle|Dr-spangle]] 22:32, 13 February 2011 (UTC)  | $200 is pretty darn steep for a terabyte now (may the technology gods bless moore's law) a more reasonable price might be less than half that... erm.. £50 or so (for a random drive from a common retailer), so $80? --[[User:Dr-spangle|Dr-spangle]] 22:32, 13 February 2011 (UTC)  | ||
