February 25, 201214 yr http://hothardware.com/News/Hard-Drive-Shortage-to-See-Major-Relieve-in-Q1-2012/ According to DigiTimes, global HDD production capacity is getting ready to increase to 140-145 million units in the first quarter of 2012, or about 80 percent of where it was prior to when the flooding hit.
February 25, 201214 yr "Unfortunately, that doesn't necessarily mean prices will suddenly drop to pre-flood levels. On the contrary, higher priced components and materials means HDD prices will likely rise 30-40 percent from before the floods by the end of the year. Bummer."
