Seagate's chief artefact administrator Barbara Craig confirmed rumors that the aggregation will be absolution a monster 3TB drive after this year. That's a lot of deejay space! But apologetic XP users, the drive will crave a 64-bit OS.
The 3TB jump isn't advancing after its difficulties—the accepted LBA (logical block addressing) standard, set in the accumulator amplitude Stone Age of 1980, alone supports capacities up to 2.1TB. Craig said that the drive's full, alarming ability will alone be attainable with 64-bit versions of Windows 7 and Vista, as able-bodied as some adapted versions of Linux.
Thinq's allocution with Craig spells out the assorted abstruse challenges of creating so massive a drive in greater detail, but I acclaim Seagate's assurance to go big, rather than traveling home. Craig alone said to apprehend an advertisement "later this year," which should accord you affluence of time to alpha accession any and every book you can find. [Thinq]
