Seagate confirms its working on a 3TB hard drive set for a 2010 launch
Posted on May 17, 2010 | No Comments
A few weeks back a story broke about Seagate's plan to release a 3TB 3.5mm hard drive this year. Well, apparently that's the case although if your system happens to be running a 32-bit OS like XP, you're going to be out of luck. This drive, and any other hard drive larger than 2.1TB, will require the a modified versions of Linux or the 64-bit version of Windows 7 or Vista. Sorry, kids. It's time to upgrade.

Western Digital has sold more hard drives this year than Seagate
Posted on May 13, 2010 | No Comments
Five hundred and fifty eight million hard drives were shipped in 2009. Think about that for a moment. Five hundred and fifty eight million. Of those, 175.2 million (or 31.4%) carried the Seagate brand name while 165.2 million came from Western Digital. According to The Information Network, WD pulled ahead in the first quarter of 2010, selling 51.1 million hard drives compared to Seagate's 50.3 million sold. I guess that's big news, if you're really into hard drives, or have strong brand loyalty to the drive in your computer. Me, I don't care so much.

RIAA, MPAA would like to scan your hard drive for infringing content
Posted on April 16, 2010 | No CommentsThere really isn't any particular point to the following story other than to get you riled up as your begin your weekend. The U.S. government is actively trying to figure out how best to handle intellectual property rights, so it has asked the concerned parties to submit all sorts of information in order to better understand what's going no. The person in charge of this is the Intellectual Property Enforcement Coordinator, and what the RIAA and MPAA have submitted borders on the insane. Well, it would border on the insane if it weren't totally their modus operandi. The most glaring "suggestion"? That computer users install software that would scan the contents of their hard drives, looking for examples of "infringement." If the software discovers what it thinks it infringement, bam! Deleted! I'd be surprised if this were the year 2001, but after so many years of insane RIAA/MPAA stories it's hard to be shocked anymore.
