PS- Oh and please let someone invent a 48 hour battery that is edible like a cookie when it can no longer hold a charge. That would be really swell. so when a battery can no longer hold a changer for the last time the heat from the system bakes it into a cookie that can be passed around. Mmmmm cookie. :-P]]>Jul 10th 2008 6:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 8:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 11th 2008 1:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 5:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 7:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 7:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 5:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/
I know that there are many 3 platter 1 TB drives already, so Samsung for instance could easily pip Seagate with a 5 platter, 1.66 TB drive. Seagate has to stay in line with pricing on this bad boy.]]>Jul 10th 2008 6:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 5:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/

A couple things:
1. I won't need that much (I hardly even use up 80 GB, so I have two 80GB mirrored... yes, I am the guy who wouldn't trust my data on an 80GB drive... j/k)

2. Currently, I'd see it cheaper to buy three 500's than the coming 1.5TB, unless the HDD is going to be less than $250 (since I can pick up a 500GB drive for a little more than $80 easily)

3. If I wanted 1.5TB storage, it would all have to be mirrored... meaning I'll need to buy two. No thank you.]]>Jul 10th 2008 8:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 5:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/Jul 10th 2008 5:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/

I would be willing to bet everything I own that when someone fires up one of these 1.5 TB drives they are presented with 1.2 TB as the maximum storage available. Does 1.2 = 1.5? NO IT DOESN'T. Hey Seagate, do us a favor, put 1.2 GB on the side of the boxes.

The amount of storage you get when a drive is plugged in, THAT is the amount that should be on the box. My point is, stop all the false advertising and tell the consumers what they're actually getting. It's called being honest.

My drives are as follows:
2 x 750 GB - only 698 GB available
1 x 500 GB - only 465 GB available
2 x 400 GB - only 372 GB available

Those figures are disgusting. All the drive manufacturer's had to do was put the secondary amounts on the box and I would be a happy customer. Instead, everyone who buys a drive is being lied to.]]>Jul 10th 2008 5:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/10/seagate-barracuda-7200-11-1-5tb-of-love/You lost everything you own.]]>Jul 10th 2008 6:11PM
