- lahuard, on 10/12/2007, -5/+34The real question is how much pr0n you can fit on there
- dclowd9901, on 10/12/2007, -2/+25Just in time for Windows Vista.
This is the "jokes" thread right? - qpid, on 10/12/2007, -2/+24That's a lot of porn! err... divx err... term papers, keyboard drivers and family photos
- mikeazorin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22And in other news, ThePirateBay.org has set a new donation goal of $850,000.

1 Japanese yen = 0.00852733 U.S. dollars via google. - Brian48216, on 10/12/2007, -4/+16ETERNUS
That has to be one of the most bad assed names for a storage system EVER - OandA, on 10/12/2007, -9/+20I'm wondering what the drive rate failure is like...i mean with that many drivers surely a drive fails once a week at the very least...
I'm waiting for my one terabyte ipod.
---sidenote WHY IS IPOD NOT IN THE CHECK SPELLING DICTIONARY? YOU CALL YOURSELF A TECH WEBSITE. - csimpkins, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10And in 15 years, this will be the minimum requirement for installing Doom 9.
- compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10No he means stronger. That's why he wrote stronger.
- merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9a 20 pack of fujitsu 300 gig fibre channel drives retails for about $19,000. Note: These are high RPM, enterprise class, FC drives; NOT 7,200 RPM SATA drives -- hence the _huge_ price difference.

(digg keeps f(*$%ing up the links. Copy and paste)
Generously assuming you get the 500 gig drives at the same price, 2,760 drives = 138 twenty packs = $2.6 million dollars.
That doesn't include the "sixteen 3.6GHz dual processors" or the 1/4 terrabyte of cache ram, or power supplies, motherboards, interconnect hardware, etc. etc. - dbre2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Sorry, I played too much FF3 as a child
- iluvdrbonner, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Does this come in Firewire or USB2? ;)
- sinner0423, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9http://www.fujitsu.com/global/services/computing/storage/system/eternus8000/
^ Is the actual site product site. I haven't seen a price anywhere, but I'm sure it costs millions of dollars. Better start saving that lunch money. - OandA, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14You obviously take things way too seriously. Lighten up man.
- diggerphelps, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Obvious.
High Definition porn deployment demands huge hard disks. - the_penguin_boy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8It's from spendingg too much time onn digg. Makess you wantt to add doubble consonnants to everythingg.
- winterwynde, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Now we know how AT&T temporarily stores all the internet traffic it captures and routes for the sake of the NSA.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Sign Blizzard up for 60 of these.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10And there was much rejoicing among the pirate tech guys the world over LOL
- Sebastian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6That's a lot of porn !
hard drive manifest destiny:
Take manifest destiny, and apply it to filling up a hard drive, so that you get something like "downloading stuff (such as movies) because you have the space and/or you were meant to.
"My mom looked at me inquisitively and asked, 'Why do you need a new hard drive?' I replied, 'Hard drive manifest destiny.'"
"Billy just bought his fourth hard drive yesterday; he should see a shrink about his hard drive manifest destiny."
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=hard+drive+manifest+destiny - td4guy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8"Or you could use it to assist law enforement to hunt down, capture and imprison the theives who run warez sites."
But where's the fun in that? - manfrin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Or Duke Nukem Forever, at this rate.
- nodnarb24, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Soogy: This uses FibreChannel drives, which costs quite a bit more than $200 each. They are probably closer to $2000 each.
Edit: Oops, looks like merreborn beat me to it. - compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Wow, you must be passing math.
- compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Seriously, that was an even worse suggestion than running a warez site, although running a warez site wouldn't be a half bad idea. As long as it was warez from only the companies and associations we hate the most. Bah ***** that just stick to RIAA & MPAA material. :)
- golhra, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6"Eternus" was a spell in Skies of Arcadia which would kill your enemies in 1 hit.
AWESOME NAME. - digismack, on 10/12/2007, -6/+11It's iPod, not ipod. ;)
- cnt2infinity, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Lets not forget the RAID level knocking down the total 1.3 PB. I doubt anyone would want to back the data on these drives up.
- Lucian0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4This thing must suck up a ton of electricity. I highly doubt I could afford to power it, let alone actually buy an array of drives this big.
- mc1123, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4"well guys, we're down to our last billion yen."
-simpsons - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Has google calulated how much space it would take to hold everything on the internet or at least accessible by http?
- valona, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4A lot of industries need storage on this scale. I work as a storage admin, and we have just ordered 2 EMC DMX's, each of which hold 1PB. Thats on top of 900TB of storage already in place. When you have cross site replication, back-up copies, clones and point in time copies of business critical data, then the storage quickly runs out. And we are a relatively small business, around 9000 employees.
- CVirus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Have you guys forgotten the fact that: "Data Expands to Fit the Available Free Disk Space" ?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4~ sigh ~ I'm still trying to reach 1 terabyte :(
- shwaa, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Assuming you're the most perverted person in existence, you could probably hold all the porn ever produced, and in high definition format at that! 1.36 million GB is roughly 27,200 dual layer blu-ray discs.
- SilentPurity, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I hope you really mean BUY. =)
- shubjero, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4holy mother of god the ETERNUS!!!!!!!!! *runs away scared*
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3ah whatever its only about 200,000 dvd quality movies.
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Also what Google wants, and will likely *get* for Christmas
- tavisjohn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Now with that I CAN download the internet!
- tacom8, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Out of interest sake, how big do you guys suppose "the internet" is?? like size of the files wise? i wonder if this sucker could legitimately hold a decent percentage of the world's information?
then again i am sure there are more then 2,776 servers in the world so i am sure this sucker couldn't "download the internet" - compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That's what fast foward is for. :)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Screw memory based mobile audio/video devices. Just get a wireless connection that pulls from one of these things in your area that has everything you could want on it, and pay a monthly fee. Flat-Rate Everything on demand
- compu73rg33k, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3And Unreal Tournament 2021
