Samsung hard disks

[directhex]

Any chance of stocking these (especially the P80 series)? I'm a big fan, but stockists are limited (and I don't buy from OcUK)

[Lee H]

I'll pass the query to the purchasing team and see what they say

Best Regards

I'm a big fan too, as they're VERY quiet, and have a 3yr warranty - so if I was to buy any hard drive it would only be samsung.

Another vote here for the samsung hdds

Samsung HDDs rock - I have one in this machine ... why not head over to overclock.co.uk who allready stock them?

BTW - they are really quiet

[Apex]

I'd rather not give my money to that company m8.......

Can I ask why not? I think there really good - unless you mistook the link for overclockers.co.uk (ie OCUK) then yeah, I'd keep away from them, but overclock are really good.

And another vote for Samsung disks from Scan, though I've just got mine elsewhere.

Whats wrong with OCUK? I spent £1,400 there over christmas and it all arrived within 2 days. No problems at all, www.overclock.co.uk are good too, but there delivery time is a little slow for me. I always assumed Samsung HDD's would be cheap crap. Just because they're cheaper than Seagate and Maxtor. And it's not normally a name i would associate with pc's

& quieter & just as fast & 3 year warranty

So, you wouldn't use Samsung memory (highly rated by folks), a Samsung monitor, Samsung laptop, Samsung optical drive let alone printer, digicam etc.

P.S. OCUK RMA sucks

[HomerJaySimpson]

Perhaps my next HDD will be a Samsung then

Do they do a 200GB sata?

Is that the only problem with OCUK? I havent had to RMA anything yet thankfully

[directhex]

the samsung p80 series comes in 80, 120 and 160gb form, on ata or sata interfaces. iirc they can't increase the size without adding more platters or increasing platter density, and they aren't confident they can build a reliable drive to those specs yet

[DeepThought]

Oooo.. yes great drives. I've got ttwo in my PC and they are very quiet

Need to buy a 160Gb SATA.
