Hey, OWC Larry--When can we buy the new, big 2.5" HDs? - anonymouse1 - 05-30-2008
I'm talking about the 7200RPM 320GB, or the 500GB 9.5mm 2.5 inch hard drives!
Any idea when? Any idea what the expected prices are?
Thanks!

320GB 7200RPM is end of June. No pricing yet.
500GB 12.5MM have had for awhile - MacBook Pro 17" only of course..

new 500GB 9.5mm.... well...tomorrow. but these units we can ONLY sell external. we can't stop people from using to upgrade their internals and swapping their old internal to our case - but Samsung not allowing ANY of the initial units they are supplying us to be sold bare. USB 2.0 + eSATA model will start at around $299, FireWire + USB $319
These new ones will be on the site tomorrow once delivery here confirmed. Already received qualification drives from production a week ago - so just waiting on stock and final price confirmation.

Is the 7200RPM, or larger storage size, an energy-consuming factor for notebook computers? Or not really an issue? I wondered how much of a factor that is, if any.
