New Seagate Hard Drive Paves Way For 2TB Monster

Our Comments

Hitachi has already said that it is working on technology that will allow it to cram a whopping 610 Gigabit per square inch (that's almost twice the amount of the 7200.12 HD), which paves the way for 4TB or 5TB as early as next year. The hunger for high definition content means that the competitive storage sector is bound to flourish for a foreseeable future. 1TB are already widespread and cost well under £70 at major retailers.
