Lacrima Castle _ Computeralogical Stuff _ 1.5TB Hard Drives
Posted by: jcdietz03 Sep 5 2008, 05:40 PM
Several articles are around the internet related to http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?locale=en-US&name=null&vgnextoid=19549a9dafc0b110VgnVCM100000f5ee0a0aRCRD.
The press release says the drives are shipping August 2008. The problem is, here we are in September 2008 and no drives anywhere! I am looking for a hard drive of this size - specifically where to get them and what they cost. Can anyone help?

I don't know how I'd even fill that much space. I don't like having useless junk about.

You'd probably just fill it up with music.

I thought 1TB was ridiculous.
Anyway, this is what I managed to find:

This is a picture of the OneTouch III.
It obviously has 2 disks in it.
I did find the product for sale somewhere.
Looked at Seagate website and got the product number: ST31500341AS.
Googled the product number. Zipzoomfly, Amazon, and Dell all have it. I don't think they're shipping for another few weeks though.

5TB...you can make your own self imported to it!
Or maybe the knowledge of mankind.....wait, that's too big.
Stack it up with info's, then send it to Mars or something. Let the ET's take it......

what?
My friend has about 2TB of mem filled up with anime, pics and movies.
I consider that a waste of space since he doesn't have any games on it.

Why would you keep anime after you've watched it.

I still have the KnK movies on my computer.

That's different. It's not finished yet. :(

So you can watch it again. Or, you can grab a bunch of friends who haven't watched the lot and get them to watch it. Half the anime clubs I've ever heard of do exactly that. The other half cease to exist after maybe three meetings.

WHY WOULD YOU WATCH IT AGAIN WHEN YOU FINISHED IT.
ALSO ANIME CLUBS ARE STUPID.

For the same reasons that you'd reread a book, watch a movie again, or replay a game.
Posted by: Irysa Sep 14 2008, 07:22 PM
But I don't reread books, rewatch movies, and replaying games is totally different because there can be completely different variety in the gameplay and approach to it.

Then I'll give you some reasons. You notice a lot more subtle (and some not so subtle) details in things when you already know what's going to happen in stories. There's a nostalgia factor in rewatching/reading/playing certain things for some people. And this one is probably the biggest reason: memory. People forget things that happened a long time ago, so it's nice to re-do things to refresh your memory.
I don't know why anyone would re-read/watch/play anything that they disliked, so I can't help you understand people that refuse to delete ANY anime they watched.
I HAVE TO ADD THIS. There's also evolving mentality changing your outlook on things. It's kind of like how I don't trust the opinions I had seven years ago. That could be one reason to re-play/watch/read something you disliked. But I can't think of any others.

7 years is an awful long time to take up gigs worth of space on your HD to judge something again.
I tend to have vivid memories when it comes to these kinds of things though, so I guess maybe that's why I don't do it.

There you have it. Straight from the man himself. What hard disk drives are for.

I have 1 TB internal and a 500 GB external. The 500 GB is filled up completely with videos, then my 1 TB is about 400 GBs full. You would be surprised how fast you can fill up harddrives, atleast I am surprised how fast I can fill them up. :p

I don't think I could ever fill up a TB.
