Yes. Funny but true. I have about 4TB of drives laying around the place
right now. More in storage.
Directly access about 2TB through USB currently, and that between my
x86 PC and my PS3 under both the XMB and Linux without problems.
And hard drives have more technology per buck packed in them than
nearly anything we own these days. A "Garamin" is several hundred
dollars more than it costs to make (or is worth IMHO), whereas a hard
drive has several hundred dollars per unit of engineering prowess packed
into it, and yet we get them dirt cheap. Give me a ten TB raid 6 array
any day. Maybe one day, we will even see fiber feeds become cheap enough
for consumers. Then, I hook up my raid array tower to a supply line, and
a single or dual fiber link over to the PC in need of being fed by or
feeding my tower. That's the future I want.
