750GB Samsung HD753LJ Spinpoint F1 £57.56 or 1000GB Samsung HD103UJ Spinpoint F1 £85.76

Not bad

But looks like they forgot to list that the two sata's come with: http://www.scan.co.uk/Product.aspx?ProductId=22844
as well...

the 1gb works out to be £93 odd

Scan offer 3-5 yr warranty tho (Arie & Ebuyer are 1 yr)

great deal! i just ordered one. i'm a new hexus member but i have 20 posts so got the free delivery.

i held off buying from ebuyer as i needed another SATA card for my pc so i could have 3 SATA drives internally, and scan had the pci-e controller at £15, but the F1 was £90 until yesterday

this is my second 1TB drive, i'm basically using it so i can have a full backup of my first drive, my 3rd sata drive is a small 80gig boot drive with my windows install

the free fan with the drive is a bonus, i'm not sure if i'll use it or not, but it might come in handy

thanks for the headsup

Am I missing something?

But Samsung handle the warranty after the first year.... so that statement was a little misleading.

Just ordered a couple of the 750's purely for .avi storage/playback,and will probably find a couple of suitable caddies somewhere,so I can just plug 'em straight into the telly or DVD recorder.

Almost as cheap,less hassle,and most definitely less time consuming than burning stuff to DVD/CD these days.

Therefore I voted hot on this one,though I realise it probably wouldn't float everyone's boat.

voted hot bought one in scans shop today and got a free Xigmatek HDC-D801 Aluminum 3.5" HDD Cooler with 80mm Quiet Fan worth £5.84 Inc VAT
love scan

I’d rather have the warranty with Samsung directly as from my experience their RMA service was very quick; 3 days from mailing the drive to receiving a replacement. I doubt Scan would match that.

Extremely reasonable... Very impressed with Scan's HDs of late!

Can confirm they both appear to be fine,and absolutely P all over the replaced WD's regarding transfer rate (peak and average) by anywhere between 20+25%,plus they appear to run about 7 degrees cooler,even though the ambient temp's are now much higher,due to that often evasive ball of fire in the sky making an increasingly rare appearance.
