250GB Hard Disk · DIGIT-ARC

Hey guys, I am planning to buy a Seagate 7200rpm 250GB Hard Disk. The dealer quoted a price of 3.8k . Do you think the price is right. Also it would be helpful if someone provides a pricelist of Hard Disk drives in India.

The price is right. Last month, I bought a Seagate SATA 200 GB for Rs. 3000/-

Thats wicked cheap. Where did you buy it from.

I got a Seagate 7200.10 250GB HDD last month for Rs. 3,800.

Make sure you get the dealer to throw in the SATA data cable, molex-to-SATA power converter and mounting screws for free because the drive does not ship with any of these.

I feel you are lucky to have got 7200.10 250GB for 3.8K since the price is reasonable and the 7200.10 means (if I am correct) perpendicular recording.

Yep, that correct.

Be sure to buy SATA II if your MOBO supports it. They will just say "Hanji Sir, SATA hi hai"...tell him i need SATA II

I have the same hdd.Purchased at the same price. ;-)

Sorry guys I am gonna purchase a PATA hard disk as my mobo doesnt support SATA. I think it i better to get more space than get a SATA HDD and a converter card and compromise on space.

250 gig 3.5k in lamington

I got Seagate ST3250820AS SATAII 3.0 250 GB for rs. 3400/- in Dehradun

Ahh.....gone are those days....Lol I still have that 20 GB fairy in my system which came with my first system about 6 years ago. It runs super fine and I still trust it for my backup. I also have 80GB Barracuda attached.

wtf man.. Hdds r dirt cheap now.. How much 4 the 400gb sata 2 barracuda

400 GB is sata II around 4.5 k

Not a bad price buddy. I bought it for 4.1k around 7 months back. :-?

prices are different in different cities so .............. 4.1k is pretty good .. was that a sata or sata II or pata

It was a Seagate Sata2 model 7200RPM. I bought that in Bangalore.

i am talking about DELHI PRICING so it may vary...

.

Should have read this thread earlier. Running a similar query in parallel.
Anyone know of a PATA to SATA-II converter?
I am planning to buy a 250 gig Seagate too. How much the same for Hitachi cost or is Seagate better than Hitachi?

Seagate Is Better

D

Hitachi is very overpriced plus Seagate has a 5 year warranty and a great service network in India.

yup seagate rocks... its service centers r better than any other company... they offer fast replacement....

How is it so low? Even a 320GB HDD costs more than 4.1k in Mumbai. If it is true, then 400GB for 4.1k is a really, really sweet deal.

ny1 from mumbai pls confirm the rates @ lamington...
