Default Best Hard Disk Deals

Having accumulated nearly half a terabyte of, er, 'audiovisual' material
since Christmas, I'm running out of room fast (I need to stack a certain
amount on the HDD for editing before burning off to DVDR/RW) - at the
risk
of appearing too idle to start the rounds myself, is anyone here 'au
courant' with the best online deals atm?

I'm looking at the best price/size combination at the 200-250 GB break
and
also interested in what's available at bigger capacities (500 Gig?)

TIA


Serveral smaller drives should present better vfm, depending on the
controller.
The 160gig Samsung spinpoints are very fast and quiet.

Incidently, are we looking at uncompressed digital video to fill a
terabyte?
