My largest array is running out of space, could really do with some cheaper 3TB's... think I might just try and wait out until they get to nearer the £100 mark again though. The problem is the discrepancy in estimates as to when that might be.
Hitachi 3TB Touro Desk External USB 3.0 Hard Drive £125.99 on scan today page. Also a 7200rpm drive.
Currently £119.16 which still seems great value.
I managed to pick one up for £107.99 delivered with voucher HDRIVE10 last week. They've put the price up by £10 now though.
3TB Seagate Barracudas:

I actually picked 2 of these up in Hong Kong at £84 each. They run quite hot though (~55'C idle)
