WD Caviar Black 1TB Hard Drive
DarkVision Hardware Articles and Review from around the web —
It is the WD Caviar Black 1TB drive I will be taking a look at today. The Black series, in addition to offering the greatest performance of Western Digital's consumer lineup of Caviar drives, also includes the same five year warranty as their more expensive Enterprise class. Sporting a class-standard SATA 3.0Gbps interface, 7200rpm spindle speed and a whopping 32Mb of cache, the WD1001FALS represents Western Digital's top of the line consumer grade hard drive. Link: OCIA

... two years since, there really hasn't been much development in the way of expanding those capacities any further. Oh sure, more manufacturers have released 1TB drives, and prices have surely fallen steadily, but there are only a handful of drives larger than 1TB. I'm not sure if we've hit a watershed as far as demand for increased capacity goes, or whether the apparent lack of progress indicates a technological hurdle when it comes to going bigger. Perhaps it's a bit of both.
