Your £90 will get you a Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 160GB IDE drive from Komplett or a Samsung SpinPoint P80 160GB 7200RPM 8MB.

E-Buyer will no doubt be cheaper, but I'd rather consume my own ********* than use them ever again.

Hello,

I'm running out of space on my hard drive (well, all three of them!).

I want to pay around £90 for a drive, where is the best place to get good value for money?

Thanks,

Steve.

Don't get the Samsung.

I sent 3 of the 160GB ones back to Komplett, one failed right after the other, so I refused to take another. They sent me a Western Digital one, instead.

Really ? I'm a Seagate man myself, but worth noting Just mentioned that one as it had 8Mb cache.
