hi IBF guys,
After a long dilemma, i bought a new seagate 1tb desktop type external harddisk.usb connectivity. extremely good in performance, price rs 4950/-.

it can be used as a portable one the size is just double the size of the the pocket size external harddisk.

That is a good price you paid. What is the model number?

I bought a 1TB Segate harddisk(Baracudda 7200.12) alone for Rs.4000 in Hyderabad.
I chose this harddisk because it provided best Rs. per MB and also it's reviews were really good.

i dunno man.... always confused with seagate....

My bro works in seagate, he says it pretty good, but my baracuda died in just 1 year (i lost bill so..) i use WD now

Good price for the external bro !!
You can power it just by USB ??no external power required ?? If yes, its an AWESOME price, i paid Rs3,000 for 160GB

A friend/colleague of mine asked me to purchase a 1 TB Seagate external HDD. I purchased an external powered USB disk for $ 120 + tax. This amounts to a little less than Rs. 6500/-.

So the price you (inba) paid is pretty good.

What if you lost the bill ? You can always claim the warranty, just go to Seagate website and register your complaint. If it is within warranty you don't need a bill, you get a replacement.

The harddisk prices are falling sharply every month.
Just a month ago when I enquired about the price of the same harddisk ,it was Rs.4500.
And I got the harddisk alone for Rs.4000 , not along with the external casing.
About Segate it has the best customer care in India .
Even if the harddisk gets damaged due to your own mishandling or if it gets slowed down or if you feel it is making any sounds you can just go to the service centre and they will get it replaced without much paperwork which is necessary for other harddisk brands like WD,Hitachi etc.
