1 Terrabyte Hard Drive + 32 Meg Cache.
http://www.thetechlounge.com/article...r+Hard+Drives/

The Hitachi booth showed off their brand new terabyte drives. That’s right 1000 GBs! Their new Deskstar 7K1000 and CinemaStar drives were presented in all their disemboweled glory. Interestingly enough, they still look like every other hard drive they have produced, but with 1 TB of space. The new drives will be produced with either SATA II 3.0 Gb/s interfaces or the older PATA. The drives feature a 5 platter design with 10 recording heads using a 32 MB cache. The price for these drives which should be available in the first quarter of 2007 will be at $399.

These would be nice in a raid5 array. I wonder if these out perform the seagate 7200.10 series.

everytime there is a thread about harddrives you guys always talk about pr0n .... cliché?
hitachi ownz, never understood people with WDs, SEAGATEs etc (except Raptors)
My favourite is 2 platter - fast, cool and cheap, best for RAID arrays IMO,
in this case it would be 400GB !!! 
cant wait for benchies

What's the big deal? This is like the 3rd or 4th company to put out a 1TB HD.
32mb cache, cool, but I don't see it sealing the deal for me.

I dont think so dude, they only other TB hard drives out there are external and arent single drives but 2 500gb drives.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat I really need to have 1.5TB drives out there, that would be the minimum to replace all the 500's that I have and give me at least some more head-room. All the companies keep on 'announcing' all this new bit density but nothing really comes to market. The 750 have been out for way too long without competition and they are just so bloody small. Hopefully at least 1.5TB drives will be out by March 2008 otherwise I'm screwed/out of space with my current growth pattern. Only have about 1.5TB free right now, need to create a new 32+TB array for some growth room.

Maybe enterprise use o_O?
at least in image archiving even 20-30k 2bit tiff images would fill up the space pretty fast.

I have 12TB today with 1.5TB free. I was going to start putting all my DVD's (iso raw mode) online so I can push it to any htpc that I have in the house (or back-yard w/ wireless) but that's only about 6TB more of 'latent demand'. right now I have a lot of my photos online (slide/film raw scans ~133MB/each, have about 15,000 of those total that I'm still trying to scan in). Most of the data on there is a file share for all media, software, documents, vmware images, et al that's shared out to all other systems. it all adds up when you've been working on computers since 1977. (though granted the first 20years probably fits into a single 4GB of space. 
Basically everything right now fills up about 10TB of photos/8mm/16mm/3/4" et al raw footage for video non-linear editing (all original content), and a latent demand probably close to 10TB of store-bought content (dvd's, cd's, ISO's for software et al. With HD DVD media w/ 23+GB per disc that's going to balloon as well. Plus all the Anime fan-subs fit into the mess as well but they only last as long as it takes me to make a determination to buy the discs or if it sucks and blow it away.
End goal is to have everything digital and on-line at all times and accessible from any location in the house at any time at full quality settings.

I am real pumped for hard-drives this big... but at the same time, just a little bit scared. When you are talking about putting that much media on one device you are talking about risking a lot of media. I mean, we all know that HDDs can fail, and they do on a semi-regular basis... now you are talking about putting more on one drive than most people have on multiple drives? its scary stuff.

Yes, but remember this is a RAID-5 array physically, plus I'm using an LTO-3 drive w/ tapes for backup (soon to be LTO-4 when they come out in about a couple months (knocking on wood)). The size is not that bad, right now w/ LTO-3 I can do a full backup just under 24 hours which should drop down to about 18 or so hours w/ LTO-4 and that's with only one drive.
As for drive failures the worst ones that I had were back in the 80's with the 4GB drives but all in all I've only lost about 1 drive every 2 years or so (now, remember I have total of about 40 drives here), Also currently I have not had any drive failure mainly due to the fact that I haven't kept any of the drives I have that long with the size. I just picked up the 500's back in november, they replaced 300's that I purchased about 18months ago. I'll probably replace the 500's w/ 1.5TB ones in about 18 more months if I can hold out that long.
