1 Terabyte?
I remember seeing an ad about a 1 Terabyte storage device or something about putting 7 drives together as a 1 Terabyte. . . if anyone has information on where I can find terabyte storage devices and/or their price.

hmmm, lets see .... todays largest single harddrive is 80 GB (Maxtor DiamondMax 80), quick calculations tell us that you still need 13 of those drives to break the TB mark.
This would be the mother of a RAID array, 13x80GB in RAID0 ... but stop, you might want redundancy, so you would to add a few more drives for RAID5 ... and it would require a sophisticated RAID controller.

cursed by blindness I missed this on the Maxtor homepage:
Check http://www.maxtor.com/products/MaxAttach/MaxAttachExplorer.htm , you can stack up 4 of their MaxAttach 400 NAS with 240GB each and get almost 1 TB ...

I might soon be "somewhere" in that corporate world when everything works out fine in my near future
SHS, does SUN use "regular consumer HDD's" to build their lil storagewonders, like a big 20 disk RAID array using 10K Cheetahs ?
btw, I know about server and storagefarms somewhere out there in the corporate world ... but this is way out there ... while I would be happy with a small RAID0 setup with three Cheetah X15 for now
