Can't wait for my very own internet pwn!

Any word on  it's capability? 1080p? 7.1 audio... is it optical out? HDMI?

also, why is it so ugly? it looks like a mini IBM desktop...

***I would not recomend the seagate 1.5TB drives in RAID, they have known issues with RAID of any level. Try to check on forums and see if the controller you will be using is going to work***

-I'll spellcheck later

I vote for ECS!

"The first batch of retail cards will hit before March with read/write speeds up to 104MBps in unknown capacities, though certainly less than 2TB on day one."
 
Looks like we'll have to wait a little bit, but I'm none too worried, since I don’t feel like buying a new laptop just for a new SD card standard to be built in.
 Also, the FS they are using is exFAT, which does lend itself to being what makes the 2TB flash card possible, but I imagine it's simply a new architecture they're employing, and the FS was simply convenient to use.

Miniturising this should be easy. It looks like the inside of a calculator. They can obviously do better than this, just look at the ribbon cables.

LED outdoor signage will be huge. no pun intended.

besides that, ya, just green-friendly eco-garbage and netbooks. wait, that last sentence was redundant.

If they're shipping at the same price(ish?) as the old generation, that's reason enough to test the waters.

I  find that usually if a seagate if going to die, it's going to do it in the first week, which should be covered by any good retailer.

What are the performance data?

I'd focus on simple english syntax before trolling our benefactors. Just a thought.

Packing more data into a smaller area gives the drive a higher aerial density,
making the drive more efficient and faster by decreasing the movement of the
heads that read and write the data. This movement is what causes the latency in
access times, so making this need to move very far decrease is key. 
 

 This also means we will be seeing bigger drives soon, when they start
using 3 platters at this density. :)
