The world+dog wants petabyte storage systems I don't own an HDTV, yet there are enough of you addicted to the experience/technology already to point out that recording HD programming, porn or not, is a serious disk hog. One bloke wrote to tell me he has added 1.5 TB to his storage array in the past twelve months and expects to add another 2.5 to 3 TB over the next year, with another 4 TB added on in the following year. Those planning ahead for BluRay porn point out that at 50 GB a pop, er disk, you can fit around ten (10) feature length videos onto a 500 GB disk. Others don't even need HDTV to fill up disk space. One reader said he had about 3 TB of TV shows backed up from his TV and JVC DVR devices and was looking at building a big RAID 5 array from 30 (!) 500 GB disks. Then there are the folks who delve into writing video codecs or digital photography, so keeping around a lot of uncompressed still photos or video is a necessit http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=36133 |
