"The gamer PC specialist later this year will launch a desktop PC with 16 hard drives" ...

... and it will be obsolete within 6 months... in a year or two everyone will be laughing at 500Gb drives.

Yeah, but 16 of them will hold a hell of a lot more in 2 years time.

I remember a story from the early-mid 90s about a radio station moving to an all digital format, using a couple of racks filled with hard drives. The total capacity was something like 10 gigabytes.

you can do that now.
just hook up a router with multiple network harddrives.
how deep are your pockets?

Way to go, all the stuff I burn to DVD I never touch again, it's getting to be quicker to download stuff afresh than search for it in a pile of disks...

gornyhuy · 03-02-2006, 08:35 AM

What the hell are you going to do with that kind of storage?!?!

G-Rotica · 03-02-2006, 08:37 AM
