Right, so last month I bought one (Spinpoint F1, 160GB, 16MB cache) and I just went to buy another one for RAID and as my luck would have it you no longer appear to sell/stock them?
It appears to have been replaced by a HD161GJ with only 8MB cache xD
Any info on what has happened to this product? Please tell me samsung haven't stopped producing them...
Thanks
EDIT: Another site has a "product discontinued" notice. In an ideal scenario somehow Nova would manage to get one, but there are some shops that still have some stock left, so I'm cautious of holding out for too long incase these other e-tailors go out of stock.
Double edit: Novatech sales assistant could neither "confirm nor deny" whether it has gone out of production, lots of other sites seemed to be pulling it off the shelf too. Managed to find a shop with one left, so grabbed that quite quickly :p
Triple EDIT: After some seriously bad customer service from overclock.co.uk I am still after this hard drive.
Is there any way you can get one? PPWWWEEEEEAAAAASSSSEEEEE? :D even if it's discontinued samsung must still have a few left over at their central warehouse or something?
