Western Digital Caviar SE16 640 GB HDD

Using a couple of 320 GB platters, Western Digital have unleashed the Caviar SE16 640 GB HDD. Yeah sure, there are 1 TB versions out there, but using only two platters the SE16 is a lot quieter, cooler and sucks a lot less power than 3 or 4 platter drives. Here are a few more specs on the SE16

* SATA transfer of 3 Gb/s
* 16 MB cache
* spins at 7,200 rpm
* 25.4 x 147 x 101.6 mm

The price tag on this puppy is officially US$140 over at WD but we’re sure you can your mits on one of these at an even lower price!
