[18:38] One Terabyte consumer hard drives
Holy crap! Hitachi have released the Deskstar 7K1000, a one terabyte consumer level hard drive! A brief search turns up a price range around the $US400 mark which I think is pretty damn reasonable for that much storage.

Of course, it is now:
a) completely impossible to back your stuff up to anything other than another hard-drive; and b) completely irresponsible to be running without at least RAID 1 on anything that you're storing your massive collection of photos, videos and random text data that living a digital-life implies.

Note to self: Must do something about backups...
