Just F all YI: Western Digital has
just announced their new 4TB drives. These drives are 'enterprise class' and come with an appropriate price tag (about 450 euro per drive!). The drives are 7200rpm though, and come with a 5 year warranty. These are not the usual Green Drives range. As far as I can see, these drives use 800GB platters. So this means 5 platters in a HD, which is too much for the drives to still be called 'Green' because they'll probably consume a relative large amont of power.
So WD 4TB drives are finally here. After Hitachi (which is now also WD in a way), WD is the second brand to offer them. Now we just have to wait for Seagate. (not that I'm interested at all in Seagate, but it'll be good for the competition and hence, the prices)
