At Amazon you can buy a 2.5 inch Hybrid drive for about $80 that gives you a big TB of space with performance t much better than a STANDARD HDD. Of course, that is not new. What is new is the above story about what WD claims fro their new hybrid. But they said that before. Now if that can deliver it to the marketplace at a fair price? I don't know about the drive, but I certainly like the bright red open frame thing they put the demo rig into. Looks like an Inwin D-Frame. A little pricy but I do like how Inwin have brought out some very different cases in the last few years. Their 900 series cases with the full tempered glass panels look amazing IMO and aren't crazily expensive for what they are. Quote from: Calum on January 31, 2015, 11:15:29 AM A little pricy OMG!! 329.99 UK pounds (around $500)!!! For a "case"! It's not the most expensive case out there anyone remember the Thermaltake Level 10? (Not the GT version or any of the other cheaper ones). That was around £500 and sold very well indeed (horrible case to build in btw), the limited titanium edition is still available at almost £1000. I agree it is expensive for what it is but sometimes that's the price you pay for something out of the norm. Check out some of Lian Li's creations over the years if you want to see some really out of this world designs with equally crazy price tags. There are plenty of cases to suit most builds at £70-100 tops, £200 should cover the majority of special requirements, above that really it's EITHER limited edition models, "different" cases like this one or the Level 10, or specialised manufacturers like Little Devil or Mountain Mods. I don't think personally I could ever justify paying £320 for the D-Frame, but quite a few people must have done - it certainly is eye catching hence WD using it as a showcase (pun intended) for their drives.
