Where to buy Scythe Mini Ninja, Any reviews on 5400rpm Samsung 1TB HDD?

Heya folks, I wanted to see if anyone knew where to buy the scythe mini ninja in aus?, PC case gear in victoria looks like the only place that stocks it but they charge an arm and a leg for shipping, and they are pretty pricey.

Also, Has anyone purchased the new samsung 5400RPM 1TB HDD, Its supposed to consume 50% less power than the seagate and hitachi 1TB models, and im guessing since it has a lower RPM, it will run cooler and quieter? (Speed isnt an issue for me, But I run the whole system off 120w)

The only audiable source of noise in my PC at the moment is the Hard drives, My PSU has no fans and is completely silent, CPU is cooled by a <14db fan, hard drives are cooled by a <15db fan, main HDD is a 2.5" drive which is silent from 1m away. So pretty much the only thing you can hear is the whirr of my 3 samsung HDDs, 2 are mounted via rubber grommits, and 1 is suspension mounted in the 5.25" bay so there is zero vibrational noise, just a low whirr which is asociated with the disk spinning.

I think they are the only ones selling the mini ninja ATM. Don't know if they have some sort of exclusive distributor arangement or not, but they were the only suppliers when I was researching this cooler a few months ago.
