Tech Price Watch: 1TB Disk Drives Under $60

Western Digital is the price leader for 1TB disk drives!

Western Digital is the price leader for 1TB disk drives!

If you think of it, that’s just 6 cents per gigabyte -  5 years ago it was almost 20 times that!

With a 1TB bare-bone (internal) disk drive at less than $60 at Fry’s Electronics, Western Digital (WD) is the absolute low price leader… for this week! The same drive cost $20 more a couple weeks ago.

The other notable price decrease since last week is a 2TB serial ATA/300 now at $160 ($10 less than Seagate) by Hitachi.

I also was impressed by the low price of the Kingston 64GB Solid-State Drive (SSD) that now only costs $100. I would recommend one in a heart beat: I revived my old MacBook with a 80GB Kingston SSD and is now doing most of the video post-production (importing, editing and exporting)!
