Don’t ya just get warm fuzzies all over when you hear of new over-priced, high-capacity storage options? Well, prepare to tell your coworkers once again the story of how much 6MB cost 20 years ago, cause Western Digital is dropping the single terabyte beat on your face.
Today, Western Digital ships the first 2.5″ 1TB available for storage-hungry consumers. The latest in the WD Scorpio Blue series of SATA Mobile Hard Drives rings in at 3 Gb/s at 5200 RPM and a mere 1/4 pound.
Yes, it’s tiny, and you have two sizes (and two prices) to choose from too. The smaller 750GB ($189.99) and the supreme 1TB ($249.99). How many Terabytes can you stuff in your socks now?
