Here is a weekend report on disk drive pricing from a sample of retail distributor drives. The drives include 364 samples from 6 different distributors. The average sample of disk drive prices dropped last week. Weekly average price change Weighted desktop --- down 0.8% Less than 11gb --- down 0.9% 11gb to 21gb --- down 0.8% Greater than 21gb --- even 0.9% Enterprise --- down 5.4% Last Quarterly price change (monthly rate) Weighted desktop --- down 1.5% Less than 11gb --- down 1.1% 11gb to 21gb --- down 1.3% Greater than 21gb --- down 2.2% Enterprise --- up 0.1% The average price reduction came mostly from one distributor that made many changes in their line of products. The desktop reductions from this distributor were Fujitsu (-9%), IBM (-6%), Western Digital (-4%) and Maxtor (-3%). The same distributor reduced IBM prices 45% in the enterprise sector. Prices at the remaining 5 distributors remained stable. Regards, Mark
