Hard Drives Down To A Dollar A Gigabyte

Posted by timothy on from the inflection-points dept.

Junky191 writes "I doubt anyone else noticed this- but today is the first day where mass storage is available for $1 per gigabyte (according to pricewatch,). There are several stores now selling 120GB models for $120 shipped. This is truly an amazing milestone for those of us who once spent $500 for the fantastically large 10MB models. I just can't wait for the days when things are $1/TB." With discounts, the price has been that low for a little while.

    It's called RAID-1, but I guess "u" never heard of that on IRC.

    what are you talking about?

    your rant has nothing to do with the $1/TB statement.
