We don't know. Most are saying feb/march next year.

hmmmmm I don't know, you could always just read the other threads on the subject, or do we need more?

No one knows, most like Feb-March.

Q1/Q2 next year apparently.

Didnt think things would shoot up like they did, horrible price boosts.

mid-late Q1 next year seems about reasonable

judging by the pictures in the other threads yes next year looks likley.

ive ran out of space now. wish i had purchased a 1TB before hand now, i am not up for paying £100 for a 1TB hard drive

When Supply & Demand go down to what they were previously.

6-9 months from now. so if you need a hd in that period, your SOL.

WDC Blue's are now £105 ouch.

Yeh they go even more higher, I needed one for my PC searched everywhere. best I've seen is an 2TB 5900RPM HDD for £70. ordered hours ago

I paid £80 for my seagate hybrid 500gb, now they are £130+ in some places. That is quiet a big increase there, wish i had brought a few of them now. Bit of a shame really as i wanted to buy my son a bigger hard drive but i will wait until the prices drop.

And I need a hard drive for my new build, I wanted it complete by Christmas. Ordered OS, PSU, CPU and Motherboard. Now for HDD and RAM.

Its going to cost me a fourtune. But March is my Birthday so if their down I know what I'm getting

I almost pulled £150 on a hybrid drive, were they only £80 pre-thailand?

All internal HDD's are pretty much double or more the price of a few days ago.

When will HDD prices come back down?
