Western Digital 1 Terabyte Mobile Hard Drive Is Out

In the good old days when hard drive was merely a few gigabytes, and it was expensive too.  Now you can get a hard drive up to a terabyte and more.  You can count on that hard drives keep getting bigger in capacity, but the size might get pretty slim.  I’m not talking about a hard drive that is residing in server or desktop, it’s possible to get a terabyte hard drive inside your laptop now.  You gotta love a laptop that can store up to terabytes eh?

A professor at a university that I went to once said it’s unimaginable why one needs more than 10 gigabytes hard drive, but he was so wrong.  Well, we can’t blame him since it was the past!  As the way things go now a day, computer users are hungry bunch as they grab whatever they see on the Internet and store them onto their hard drives.  I’m talking about videos, long flash movies, free video games.  So many free open source software that one can go about to fill up a large hard drive easily.

A nerd like me love to split a large hard drive into many partitions.  With many partitions I can install different  operating systems (Linux flavors and Windows) onto each partition.  Doing this with a large hard drive you can get not only dual boot but triple boot and more.  Neat!

Good news for hungry nerdy bunch as Western Digital is now shipping a 1 terabyte mobile hard drive.  Getting this hard drive won’t be too expensive either, it’s below $300.  More
