    It is a good deal, probably the cheapest 320GB 5400RPM drive around.

    When do you all think the 7200 RPM 320 GB drives will be available to buy online?

    Yeah it's out and I can imagine it's freaking light speed, but not available online to buy seperately yet though, right?

    Be kinda cool RAID 0ing two 320 GB 7200 RPM drives, or better yet, RAID 0 a couple of 256 GB Samsung SSDs lmao. Now that's freaking fast. Sorry I got off on a tangent here, back on topic!
