Hitachi's Deskstar 7K500 offers two flaps of firsts, being not only the first to hit half a terabyte in a single drive, but one of the very first to use the SATA II interface—that means more data at faster speeds. If you don't have an SATA II interface in your PC, though, Hitachi will be offering a $500 version with an 8MB buffer and a parallel ATA interface (the long, flat, ribbon cable kind). If you want the SATA II offering, it's just 20 bucks more—plus you get a bigger 16MB cache.

Not exactly a great value, but the biggest sizes never are. Also, probably not actually available in yellow.

Electronics Weekly reports that Hitachi's UK researchers have also developed a complimentary technology to the "Get Perpendicular" concept they're touting for increasing storage capacity (areal density) on hard drives. Tunneling anisotropic magentoresistance (which earns you a triple word score) takes advantage of a side effect of manganese doping. In less syllabic terms, it lets them shrink the drive head to a few tens of nanometers, which will work nicely with the newly perpendicular bits they'll be reading.
