Samsung’s F2 Series EcoGreen Drive (F2EG) is the ideal high capacity drive for green computing environments. The new eco-friendly hard drive, F2EG is designed to meet demand for high performance devices with lower power consumption. Samsung’s EcoGreen F2 makes it possible to design storage systems with the right balance of high capacity, fast performance and energy conservation. Samsung F2EG has the world’s best areal density at 5400RPM rotation speeds. High density means more bits pass under the head faster, and it improves the drive performance. Samsung employs an advanced data recording technology, which brings the next generation technology into today’s single disk platform, enabling Samsung’s new 5400RPM drives to perform at current 7200RPM drive speeds. The internal SysMark test results confirms that F2EG performs as same as 7200RPM drive speeds, and even 10% faster than other green drives.

That Sammy is a bargain :eek:

Gah, why am I on holiday tomorrow! If I weren't going away I'd have one of them in a heartbeat :(
 
£46.99? Damn...I paid £115 for those just a few months ago. :/

Hard drive prices have always worked the same way, even in the Amiga days. There is always an obvious size or couple of sizes that are the best price/size ratio. Step slightly above this you have to pay about double. Step slightly below and you save peanuts compared to what you are losing.
 

It's not a bargain.
Samsung HD + Free Delivery = £53
Samsung HD (Today Deal - £47) + Delivery (£8) = £55

Bargain eh?

Yup. This deal makes no sense for those with free delivery. It's more expensive as you pointed out!!!

Why pay £55 with today's special when you can get it on normal price for £53 lol?!
