Hi guys,

Western Digital WD5000AAKS- 500GB 7200RPM : Rs 4800/- + shipping at actuals.

The drive: Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD5000AAKS 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM

A review: PC World - Caviar SE16 (WD5000AAKS) - Reviews - Hardware - Storage - Hard Disk Drives (Internal)

Local Indian 5 year warranty Comes with bill. The price is assuming we get atleast 10 orders. If we go beyond that, price will be even lesser.

I am also organizing this GO at few other forums, so I will total the numbers at all the places (because the higher the total numbers, greator the benefit I can get for the community)

Orders
1 - Goku (tentative)
2 - TheIndian
3 - KiD0M4N

Regards, Karan Misra

Count me IN too! the price is too sweet. Me Confirmed. Is it an OEM Drive?

As far as I know, all HDD sold in India irrespective of brand are OEM pieces. Retail Box packed HDD's are not ususally available here.
 
Just to clarify, this will be a OEM piece mostly, and with 5 years warranty. Purchased locally. Will give a copy of the bill (with x number of drivers bought) along with the shipments.
 
lol...oh yeah....totally escaped my mind...

All at actuals buddy. I will prefer sending it to indivisuals, but if someone is ready to take responsibility I can bunch together a lot of drives and you guys can save some cost.

Can u tell me whats the price to ship to Delhi. If you can wait till first of next month, I might be interested.

3. aks

4. abhishek (needs to confirm)

5. Edrill (but only in next month)

6. JeDiKnight

7. khimera

8. m2c

9. KiD0M4N


10. Chaos

11. Supra

Can some one summarize the entire list here, so that I can negotitate a even better price.
