    Hi,

    From what I have read from recent articles about the flooding in thailand and its effects on the industry, it sounds like production will not be back to normal until the middle of 2012. Since Thailand makes almost half of the hard drives in the world, its going to be a while until prices fall again (at least 6 months). I read that Western Digital has almost 75% of its production lines shut down right now :(
