Just when you thought your hard drive was the biggest on the block, Maxtor lays the smack down with a massive 320 GB hard drive coming out in early 2003. And we're finally seeing some competition in the 8 MB cache arena - they'll have a drive with 8 MB of cache, 7200 RPM, and a meagre 250 GB. The more I work with digital video, the more I realize that there truly is no such thing as too much storage. Bring it on Maxtor, bring it on...
"MaXLine™ drives are ultra-reliable 5400 RPM and 7200 RPM ATA hard drives with capacities up to 320GB. They're designed, engineered and tested to stand up to demanding commercial and enterprise applications. With a mean time to failure of more than 1 million hours, it's easy to see why Maxtor supports them with a 3-year limited warranty. The 3.5-inch MaXLine II and MaXLine Plus II drives are ideal for network attached storage and other near-line storage applications that were previously handled by slower, lower-capacity tape and optical storage media."
