purchases such that I get drives that have different manufacturing

Recently however, I'm seeing that drives (Hitachi Ultrastars) ordered in
July/August/September all have manufacturing date March 2011. Is there
a supply issue wrt harddrives?

Thats a good guess, March 11.
Another possible guess is that some other big buyer got shut down
by the tsunami and Hitachi has excess supply.
Or these drives have developed a high failure rate and Per is the last to know... :-(
