Hard drive prices have doubled and then tripled since the Thailand floods knocked out all the factories around Bangkok including Western Digital and Toshiba main hard drive facility. Some say that things won't be back to normal for 6 months at least and because of the sudden shortage prices have rocketed. If you're buying a new system I'd recommend going for an SSD drive - their prices have remained largely static or just buy a single drive for now and maybe add more drives once the price comes down a bit when you really need it.
