The 160GB drive seems odd. If prices in Finland are anything to go by, the sweet spot is on the biggest drives, and on the low end a 5 eur extra investment doubles the size. And you always need more hd space.
Here's a comparison on Samsung SpinPoint F1 drives from http://www.verkkokauppa.com/ :
(Gigabytes / eur = ? GB/eur)
> 160/38,9
ans = 4,11311
> 250/43,9
ans = 5,69476
> 320/44,9
ans = 7,12695
> 500/55,9
ans = 8,94454
> 640/61,9
ans = 10,3393
> 750/71,9
ans = 10,4312
> 1000/81,9
ans = 12,21
