Thailand flooding led increase Hard Drive Prices

Posted November 26th, 2011 in Security Articles by cctvmen.com

Dear Customers,

Thailand flooding last month has led significant increase in price of the hard disk drive (HDD), an important peripherals for the CCTV System, by 150 percent.

We have done everything we can to prepare for this shortage. We even bought every hard disk drive on the different dealers and resellers. We paid 100 to 150 percent for the drives to make available for our customers.

At this time, we are confident that we will be able to meet the expected product needs of our customers. As costs increase, we may need to adjust our hard disk drive (HDD) pricing to reflect these changing global market conditions and our actual costs. But we will not irresponsibly raise our prices to profit from this situation.

If you have any questions relative to this HDD shortage or expected product availability, please feel free to contact us at 386-6356.
