hey i read in some windows xp magazine that scientists over in America made a 30000 terabyte hard drive by using nano technology and adding believe it or not, water to the hard drive.
how sick would it be to have a hdd that BIG

And how quickly will this thing fail? From what I hear from friend with experience on bigger harddrives, the bigger, the faster they fail.

I think 30000TB's is a little overkill...Nice little price tag on that one though.

but still insignificant to the amount of storage rapidshare has, but how big is it? the size of a house? the size of a mouse? this may seem large now, soon we'll begin to see 2.5" disks at a capacity of mmm lets see, x decabytes?

I think that the size of hardrives will increase so much that people will just stop talking about them, because they are so big you will never run out of space, so there will be no need to talk about them. Who honestly needs a 30000 tereabyte hardrive? You would a fast computer to go with it, because it would take ages for all the files to load. And you would spend hours searching through your files, because you wouldnt need to delete anything.

Wow 30000 TB...... Wonder what I would have to put in there to fill it up. Honestly I do not have that much information that I would ever get tempted to buy that.

Besides like csp4.0 has mentioned wonder how big is it going to be? But honestly 30000 TB is not gonna be an attraction for the common man.

Maybe places that need to have a lot of records can use it. Is it vulnerable? Kubi has a good point there.

All these points will be thought over before it is sold I guess

you couldn't store even 0.0005% of the internet on that harddrive... even only RapidShare .. just think of YouTube servers how they are..

Yes 30000 TB will seriously rock, I have just plan to stuff whatever junk on that disk. Also can imagine the number of partitions I can make with this kind of huge space :XD:
