Not true. There are plenty of 10-15Krpm drives that are 4", you baconeer. The fact that you know this information should be very depressing and you may want to consider yourself a baconeer geek.

Or an engineer with fabrication and product management experience. My apologies for "knowing too much" for you there.

More and more 2.5" is becoming the new desktop/server commodity drive (taking over 3.5").
More and more 1.8" is becoming the new portable commodity drive (taking over 2.5").

Wow new cheaper version of the drive. The other one goes for $300...seems like a better gb/price ratio than this :O Isn't the other one 320GB also? I've seen it dip below $300 as well...

strange selling tactics

Raptor can't touch this in most instances.if they moved to a SLC type flash, then nothing can touch them!
