Does it absolutely have to be that model of drive?

I can get 160gb SATA for £25 + VAT in the UK - admittedly from a  
"trade only" supplier, but I doubt they're much more expensive  
anywhere else.

I can't think of only very rare occasions when the specific make &  
model of drive would be important - the essential thing about drives  
is that they use a standard interface.
