1TB sata 7200 rpm 32mb buffer costs 5150/- in pune. I am sure Nehru P. can get you a better deal.

I had a simple enough question. On a budget of about Rs.5k, what is the highest capacity hard disk drive that one can buy?

My HDD is almost full (it's a 300GB one), and my big B says he needs as large a HDD under Rs.5k!

TE is undergoing updates. It will be up either tonite or tomorrow morning!

Wasn't the damn thing supposed to be up day-before yesterday or something?

Anyone here is a member of techenclave.com? Any idea when it will be up? I visit the link and it asks for a username/password. My existing ID does not work. I think their website is not yet up. I have ordered something from a dealer there and unfortunately all the details are stuck in my PM inbox. Does anyone know any person in Techenclave?

Suggestions please :

I want a HTPC but am confused abt processors (and mobo). The purpose is only to run PS3 media server/DLNA server and stream HD content to PS3 . Also , I want the config to work for more than 4 years.Will a c2d e7400 with intel dg35 ec (no other graphics card) work or do I need a quad core(phenom x4 , c2quad , phenom II x4) ?

The max budget for processor , HDD , mobo , SMPS , cabinet , RAM (2GB) is 20k .

Hey guys,

After lots of searching, considerations etc I have chosen this cabinet: The NZXT Tempest. Check the specs here: NZXT. Products. Costs 6K+shipping. Much better than CM cabinets anyday..

many say the finish of NZXT is inferior to the CM.thats what i read sometime back.just compare the above two and make ur choice.

the cm690 at mumbai is around 5k+4%VAT i think.so the choice is urs.
