150GB Velociraptor?

I could have sworn I saw it listed on WD site just last week, but it's not there now. They had a 300 and 150 showing. Maybe I'm losing my mind.:confused:

I'd be more interested in the 150 myself. 300 smackers for a 300G drive is pretty frikin high.
 
And how is that any different than $150 for a 150GB drive? As a matter of fact, I'd wager right here and now that the 150GB Veliciraptor will actually cost more.

VR 300GB $300 = $1 per GB
VR 150GB $175 = $1.17 per GB

Which looks like the better deal now?

Is this a cruel trick?

I saw them too!!
 
Unless you need gobs of highspeed diskspace for data a VR 150 for $200 (OS + apps) and a WD 640 for $100 (data) is a much better deal than a VR300 $300. Your MP3 and MPG players gain nothing from the faster drives.
 
Truth - Though, I have 2 74gb Raptors that are currently nearly filled just from Vista, my apps, and some games. Admittedly, Age of Conan is a 30gb game by itself!
