If you do not play in games, do not download video and mp3...so much spaces do not need....I have 60 gb, but use only 30.Comment

The problems:
if (when) it dies, you've not only lost a $1200 drive that you now have to replace, but you've also lost a TB of data, that you now have to replace.
This was what clinched my decision to stick with 250gb drives and smaller. It's much easier to keep adding smaller drives as necessary than it is to bank everything on one drive.SIG TOO BIGComment

expensive??? 1200 bucks for a terabyte harddisk is not expensive man... you can store your entire life on that thing

it's expensive in the way I just outlined. Because it's not "if" it's gonna die, it's "when".Originally posted by pradaboy

actual price cost is pretty much the same as stacking smaller drives. I got a box of 250gb drives coming at $240 each.... just under a buck a gig. But when one of those fail, I'm not out $1200 in one shot.SIG TOO BIGComment

Plus if you raid those drives, you can store a lot and only replace a chunk as needed (like you said, it is a matter of when a drive will fail), and you still have all your data in tact.Originally posted by Amputate Your Head

I'm not on Raid, I use a firewire farm.... because I normally only write these drives once and just read from them after that. But same principle applies. I have backup duplicates of every drive in the farm. If one dies, I pop in a blank, restore from the backup, and I'm back in business an hour later.

only way I will use TB drives is if they give better incentive than stacking smaller ones. Like, cut the price to about .30 cents a gig.SIG TOO BIGComment
