Although I realize the difference, I found an article from 4 years ago (2007) where Hitachi released a 1 TB hard drive aimed for consumers (there were others at the time as well): http://www.pcworld.com/article/128400/hitachi_introduces_1terabyte_hard_drive.html http://www.pcworld.com/article/128400/hitachi_introduces_1te... . Definitely an interesting read as it provides some context at the state of data relative to 2007.
- randallsquared 15y agoYah, but of course it's the SSD part of this that makes it interesting now.
- laluser 15y agoYes. My point was to juxtapose the release cycle of hard drives back then to SSDs now. Poor attempt, I know.
- sjwright 15y agoNo, it wasn't a poor attempt. The grandparent failed to read your post. Thank you for the interesting link; it adds an interesting dimension to the announcement.
- joenathan 15y agoYour grandparent but his child. :)
- randallsquared 15y agoIt wasn't the quality of the comment, but the fact that laluser said nothing about SSD, so I wasn't sure if that detail had been missed.
- fletchowns 15y agoSo does this mean that on August 4th, 2016, I will be able to buy a 1TB SSD drive for less than $260?
