[imported_tarang]

the price is 99$ its on sale. the original is 199$.

$99 is 4500 Rs. Approx. Thats too much a price for this HDD. You'll get a 160 GB HDD for 3.5-3.7k.

120GB SATA Seagate costs - Rs 3800
160GB SATA Seagate costs - Rs 4500
200GB SATA Seagate costs - Rs 5200

without SATA Rs 500/- less

Is that canadian dollars? Then it comes to around Rs.3800. But I guess WD is a bit costly.
