1.6TB In a Shoebox, If You've Got the Money

Posted by timothy on from the incrementalism dept.

zmcnulty writes "While not exactly a technological marvel in itself, IO Data Device's new 'HDZ-UE1.6TS' exemplifies the recent trend towards demand for higher storage capacities -- it's an external hard drive setup offering a total capacity of 1.6TB. Not much larger than four 3.5" hard drives, the HDZ-UE1.6TS goes to show that any (rich) consumer can now easily have a boatload of storage space. Here's the Japanese press release." (At current conversion rates, this would cost nearly $2,900.)

    Yes, very funny. Who the hell modded this racist crap up.

    How about having 30 blacks in my basement to harvest cotten so I never need to buy clothes again.

    See that wasn't really funny at all although it is the same joke.

    You sir are a racist!
