    According to that, Samsung is getting ready to launch a 640GB 2.5" external hard disk drive (and a 2TB 3.5" drive, but that isn't relevant here.) This means Samsung also has 320GB platters (unless the drive is 3-platter) and should signal the incoming release of a Spinpoint M8 series. I wonder how these will compare to the Toshiba and Seagates...

    Post any new info, benchmarks, etc. here.
