nightzip SG u know partitioning? 1TB can partition to drive C,D,E,F,G. Then each drive is 200GB. Also good for let's say two PCs sharing 1 hard-drive. etc..or for multiple PCs, workstation storage etc.
alexkusu SG this means take u at least 2.5years to finish 1Tb lor.. ppl normally change new comp by then anyway
KumSioJui SG how technology moves, years ago in the very early 90' I was working in a small computer retailer, an angmoh academic I think from NUS came in with a 500megabyte scsi hardisk. That 500mb looked exactly like the size of the 1TB like a brick. He was looking for a scsi card to attach to his hardisk he bought at the computer fair. He paid something like $15,000 for that 500mb drive. You must remember this was in the early 92/93 where people who owned 386 PC was like people who owned Pentium 4 machines today and most 386 machines run on 40-60mb hardisk or newer 120mb hardisk from conners so 500mb scsi disk was really a monster then. Looking back then and now I'm convinced that eventually they will have 100TB disk the size of a brick in the not so distant future.
798 SG hmm... how many bits are there in 1TB? Clues: 1KB = 1024 Bytes 1MB = 2^20 Bytes 1GB = 2^30 Bytes 1TB = 2^40 Bytes 1 Bytes is 8 bits
FireIce SG yeah, it looks very dinosaur now give it a couple of yrs......we might have 1TB thumbdrive
