    Just had a quick question for you all. I know that the Seagate Momentus 80gb 7200rpm hard drives have been on backorder. I called Seagate today and they said that they've all ready shipped out some of the units to direct dealers. Does anyone know where you can find one or when they will be available?

    I am trying to use this unit as a replacement for the current one in my W3V. I just wanted to make SURE that I am getting the right Seagate hard drive for the W3V. Here is a link to a site with the product, is this the right one?
