Fujitsu Announces 5 TB Hard Disk Drives

Fujitsu researchers have developed the technology that will provide 1 Tb/inch2 density, now they're seeking to transfer it into commercial products

Fujitsu announced in the media that its researchers have developed the key technology necessary to

fivefold the highest storage densities existent in today's commercial hard disk drives. The next step is to find a solution to transfer this technology into commercial products. The company is confident that the near future will allow it to bring to the market 5 TB desktop drives and 1.5 TB notebook drives.

In the statement it gave to the press, Fujitsu presented one of the first details about a patterned media technology research ever provided by one of the leading hard drive manufacturers. Fujitsu says it has managed to develop a way to build a patterned media device featuring a one-dimensional array nanohole pattern with a track width of only 25 nm, though the ideas are until now only in paper publications and simulation programs.

Hi :o

The next generation of Windows will probably demand such a drive as minimum requirement to run it with all features enabled :D

Has the price of those 1TB drives come down yet? I want one but it's too <deleted>' expensive.

Best regards.....

So they are saying hard drives will be bigger, faster, and cheaper? Wow. What else is new?

I mean, respect to the researchers and all but this sounds pretty far away from me being able to purchase it and putting one in my laptop.

If anyone can download enough crap to even fill a 1TB drive, I'm impressed. I'm only up to about 150gig even after absorbing a couple of ex-colleague's files in addition to my own :-)

Have on my Server a total of 1.8 TB Software + another 1.3 TB of customer Data! So a min 3 TB HDD x 2 would be fine for me but 5 TB is better!

It's depend what you need to store and for me it's just for my work. Private I do believe just a few users need such capacity on and HDD drive.

Cheers.
