Large drives

[Cyber Source]

>>From what I have seen of Maxtor hard drives, they should work on performance
and reliability first. From working with different hard drives all the time,
I believe Western Digital takes the prize for IDE drives and Seagate takes
the prize for SCSI's. Just my 2 cents worth.......

Hey,

Has anyone seen this article?  Maxtor is working on creating some VERY
large hard drives in the near future.  I found this article describing how
they are working with the ATA standards people on creating a 144petabyte
hard drive (144,000,000 GB).  Imagine that!!
Good bye storage problems LOL..

Imagine Linux supporting a drive like that.  No more worries about hard
drive space on your file server. :-)

Just thought you all would appreciate the link.

Bye for now,
