Yes. Since it yields a better RM/Gb than a 1TB HDD.

But I ask my friends and they was like lolwad?
Even I phone my friend who work at SriComp he also go lolwad? got such thing ah? From Western Digital somemore.

it was on viewnet's pricelist for quite some time already
was aiming for it, but then i found a good 640gb deal at garage sales, so grabbed that instead.

yeah i think i go get that

SSD?

If I'm not mistaken, SSD capacity max would be 320GB currently.
So far I never heard any hardisk with such capacity (808GB).

808GB sounds funny though... typo?

nope, there actually is a 808GB hdd produced by WD. 808.8GB to be exact. Caviar Green version only.

Greeting to all S478 owners! Has been a long time didnt drop by here already. Hows everyone doing? Seems like there some other new S478 comer were joining this thread huh. Old but still alive!

But anyways, I have a quick offer for ya.. Am currently looking for a S478 mobo which contained the following spec / requirement as replacement unit for my cousin PC.. If anyone have it, kindly drop me a PM.

- Comes with IO panel
- Integrated sounds and graphics

@unknownH,
it has 32mb cache, so it should be faster than those 16mb cache drives.
otherwise i think it's just the same with other WD caviar green hdd.

@fylon,
long time no see
i guess it's easy to get a 478 mobo now that everyone's starting to move to newer tech. i see a lot of p4 boards poppoing up at garage sales

This number banyak 'ong' ma... 808.8GB summore
Hope this hard disk last longer la (8years minimum?)..If not the 'ong' number no use ady

fylon looking for mobo but not for yourself? Why not considering a mobo with PCI-E one?

808GB HDD,i think is quite a common HDD from WD and quite a number of lyn members here are using too.

Woot. Caviar Green.
After much consideration, I've decide to buy it.... next month.

Then maybe change my current IDE 80GB to another 500GB perhaps. I can hear click click sound already and BitComet is taking much longer time to close because it always shows "Disk Busy. Please Wait".

now 500GB, 640GB and 808GB are priced pretty close together, you might end up buying another 808GB instead

see 1st. One month time. maybe there will be miracle especially when PC Fair and end year is round the corner.

@ray
Haha.. Actually were looking for my auntie instead of myself. She wants to recycle all the current parts so no point to loot the PCI-E version. I had found one for RM95 in garage sales. Asus P4VP-MX.. SiS chip but should be alright for normal usage.

Hows ya gear doing? I was investing madly on storage nowadays. Currently having 2x WD640, 2x 500GB and 74G raptor as main drive. Soon to loot another 1T.. Just too much 1080p, anime to be store!

@fylon,so many HDDs going to purchase? Really is making as movie server there.

@fylon, so many hard disks!
and you're able to store all of them in your casing?
