Here is a weekend report on disk drive pricing from a sample of retail distributor drives. The drives include 313 samples from 6 different distributors.

Disk drive pricing remained stable last week. The weighted average desktop drive price dropped 0.2% last week. The average price of drives less than 11 gb remained even at 0.0%. The average price of drives between 11 and 21 gb dropped 0.4%. The average price of drives over 21 gb dropped 0.3%. The average SCSI drive (enterprise) remained even at 0.0%.

Only 29 desktop drives changed in price of the 199 drives sampled. Eleven drives raised in price while 18 drives dropped in price.

Last quarter the average weighted monthly price drop was 1.5% for desktop drives. The average monthly price drop was 2.7% for enterprise drives. We have yet to see the seasonal price drop that normally occurs at the end of the 4th calendar quarter.

Regards,
Mark
