Scan (www.scan.co.uk) have 2.5" SATA 320GB WDs for £32 inc VAT and 500GBs for £40.

We use Scan a lot for various components, always a very good service and price.

Personally I'd not buy a HD from eBay, unless it was a guaranteed sealed new item, otherwise you just don't know what you are getting. They are so cheap nowadays, why risk it?

Thanks isofa , appreciate this

Jump straight on the Central Line, shinkyshonky It's only 8 stops

The one is Stratford should have roughly the same prices. The one in Tottenham Court Road has started charging £1 entrance as many of the stall owners have gone under or can no longer compete with online and offline traders such as amazon and maplin, respectively. Just in case you don't know, they now host it at the University on Malet Street (no longer at the hospital or at the back of Argos - Jury Hotel).
