Terabyte Drive is Coming Now

Having storage problem with your PC? You have downloaded a lot of movies, MP3 songs, games, etc. You are worried that your vast drive would die before you’ve replaced it. You may also feel frustrated with doing backup for hundreds GB of data onto DVD-R coz it takes a long time and a lot of discs are required.

Now the introduction of a one-terabyte drive by Hitachi might help to solve your problem. Hitachi has announced that a one-terabyte drive for desktop computers will be available in the market in the next three months. Hitachi’s competitor, Seagate, plans a similar one-terabyte delight by the summer.

The one thousand gigabytes of storage will cost you approximately US$400, or 40 cents per GB. With 1,000GB of storage, you can store and keep as much data as you like. You can rip your DVDs to the hard drive, work them as a server and play them on any TV set in your house at any time.

    If 1 TB thumb drives are to be a reality then there is a lot of testing to do, specifically against the effects of static electricity, magnetic interference, and abrupt power loss.
    There is also one other major consideration: speeding up the USB port. Such a drive should read and write at least as fast as a good SCSI. Maybe the RAID of the future will be entirely solid-state?

    the terabyt drives are good, but the thing is, if u lose ur data , ur going to be the most depressed man on earth.
    my uncle had a new mobo, and he used his 300gb sata drive (which contained his life) the hard drive died instantly, thus causing him loose all his virtual posetions, so running a terabyte on a standard home pc doesnt seem very wise
