LaCie has a new version of her Big Disk, and it’s simply called Bigger Disk. And Bigger it is: the beast sports 1TB (that is 1000,000,000,000 bytes!) of diskspace. The Bigger Disk will be available in May, and the suggested retail price is about $1200. That’s not too bad for that much space. You can hook it up to your PC or Mac via Firewire400, Firewire800 or USB 2.0. Perhaps I’ll discuss this thingie at home, since my picture collection is an ever growing disk-burdening monster. I now use DVD’s as my backup, but searching for pictures means swapping disks. Not to mention the search-speed (or lack thereof) on a DVD-R(W) compared to my 10Krpm U160-SCSI disks.
Makes one wonder what kind of pics you collect… Can’t be that many redheads in the world ! I’ll accept a DVD copy as much as the next guy 😉
