Realize that Hitachi, or Samsung or Seagate or whoever is the OEM provider is most likely only producing 160GB HDDs for SCE on order if they haven't stopped producing them already and SCE is currently only using existing stock.

I can walk into MediaMarkt and other shops around here and see 160G drives on the shelves.... I'm sure if you look around in your area you'll find them, too. These single platter HDs are the cheapest to manufacture and currently seem to have the highest markup, so shops are selling them. And all manufacturers still have them in the portfolio if you go to their websites. Of course 160G is on the way out but not just yet.
