I'd say at least 3x that. A 160GB drive is 800 bucks right now through newegg.

Also, in case that was sarcasm, of course this drive isn't an ungodly amount of money but considering what it is it is a LOT of money and it's more than any of us would fork out for it so basically it's just as unreachable as all the gold in Fort Knox.

For real. My WD Corsair 500GB is having serious problems right now, and the read speed never seems anywhere near 3.0GB/s anymore. I'll be picking up that SSD as soon as it is <$200.

"When the Nitro drive becomes available sometime in Q3'09, it will only be available for industrial applications, like military, medical and the like. Consumers like us will have to wait for other manufacturers to catch up. pureSilicon says:"

True. By 2012, spinning disk hard drives will probably be obsolete.
