I think somebody sell this harddisk in the Garage Sales... price only RM1 per GB  ... click here http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...&hl=momentus+xtI bought Samsung F3 1TB at Cycom yesterday. After checking online, the harddisk is OEM. However shop give 3 years warranty (1st year by shop). This post has been edited by jeopardise: Aug 6 2010, 12:09 PM

Good time to buy HDDs though, as I'm expecting a slight bit of shortage after PC fair. Seagate Expansion 1TB only selling for RM239 now, RM10 less from the week before lol.

QUOTE(mitodna @ Jul 31 2010, 12:07 AM) It should be a myth for normal hard disk. For SSD, if without TRIM, it will reduce wear level each format How to check the SSD whether is trim or not ?

Yea wanna know which shop too. Most price lists, pre-PC fair are listing the F3EG @ RM350.
RM338 is a steal.
