Samsung SpinPoint M6 500GB hits the US

Samsung has finally decided to do something about the SpinPoint M6 500GB hard drive by bringing it to the US despite being available since January in France. Unfortunately, there is a hidden clause in the entire purchase process – you will need to form out extra since these must be bought with some kind of accompanying hard drive enclosure. The USB 2.0 + eSATA version will retail for $310, while the FireWire 400/800 + USB 2.0 model is going for $350. Better late than never I guess.
