New Video of Apple's Enormous iDataCenter

1sockchuck writes "A new aerial video provides a rare look at Apple's new data center in North Carolina, which is expected to begin operations as soon as this week. It reveals the scale of the facility, which at 500,000 square feet will be among the world's largest data centers. The video, shot by a North Carolina real estate agent, also shows additional site preparation work that could support rumors that Apple plans to build another huge data center at the site." This is what drone cameras are for.

"among the world's largest data centers"

But nowhere near the top500.org, which is what counts for nerds.

So, speculationally, it will support the iPad cloud? 6 million fumbling feromonal fingers trying to type "vacation Louisiana", but no weather simulations. Sad.

Wait, what?

Steve Jobs says the MacBook Air is the future of the MacBook and the future of the notebook as well. But if that’s to be the case, the machine–and Apple’s ecosystem–needs to evolve a bit more to appeal to that strata of user tethered to the high-capacity hard drives that the Air has summarily dispatched.

So, what's this? You won't be able to store much locally with Apple's new product line? And you'll have to pay more for online storage?

I don't like that at all. No siree!

I love how this got modded up. Paranoid much?
