Here is another blow to components.

biz.yahoo.com

WDC's 7.5 to 45 GB drives using 15 GB per platter disks will take fewer components but maybe margins can be increased on the components because of cost savings by using the fewer components.

It is my guess these are RDRT heads that must be first to market. All the first to market components may have higher margins until the competition steps up.

Mark
