Hitachi Deskstar 7K500: First 500GB
Drive 03/31/2005 03:41 PM

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.

We been hearing rumblings about hard drives being put into cellular phones for a while now (we've certainly advocated it), but now a company called "Hoya Corp" revealed in a quarterly earnings statement that two major hard drive players - Hitachi Global Storage Technologies and Seagate - are planning on developing 1" hard drives for cellular phones. I sincerely hope that the hard drives are technically incapable of storing ringtones, because I can't imagine what life would be like if people could fit about 10,000 of the damn things in one device. I mean, really; 10,000 songs in your pocket? Who would want that?

Top Tip: Can't format hard disk!

Top Tip: Can't format hard disk! 01/26/2004 03:03 PM
I have this hard drive that cannot be reformatted. Whenever reformatting is taking place the hard disk reader head stops reading after certain sectors. When the "dir" command is used to view the disk, the files are shown but not the total about of bytes used up or free. The cursor seems to stop before this infomation is shown. Could it be that the FAT table has been damaged.

That's 5GB of e-mail storage. My Yahoo Mail Plus account has 2GB of storage (employee perk). I could add a few more "normal" Y!
