Just got a 1 TB external HDD

[Crown_Prince_of_Irony]

I have 1TB total on my home server - between using it to store my music, photos, docs, DVD rips, and backups, I’m already half full. And that’s not even with all my DVD’s ripped - I’ll need another terabyte to store all of them (in full quality VOB format).

Like the parsec, we will need a new mega-unit eventually. I suggest measuring storage devices in LOCs or “Libraries of Congress.”

Got a long way to go before we’ll need that name. After tera, you’ve got peta, exa, zetta and yottabytes. Then we can move to LOCabytes.

Sheesh, you need to think BIG. Your proposed unit is only 10 terabytes

That’s just the printed archive, though. Throw in all the video and audio recordings and such and it gets more respectable.

Whereabouts?

Good ol’ Amazon. Iomega Desktop HD

@Qadgop the Mercotan

I wonder how many people who once met civil war veterans are now using their very own 1 terabyte drives?

One I think. You’ve got a good memory, Qadgop.
