Sure it would - it would get over the 1Tb point, which would mean most users could back up their devices to a single disc again.
- ghaff 6y agoI expect the economics wouldn't work out for most consumers. (And even if they did, how many would actually make regular backups?) And I'd point out that they can backup, even in an automated way, multiple terabytes to about a $100 disk drive today.
