Storage: 300GB, eventually up to 1.6TB
Transfer Speed: 20MBps, eventually up to 120MBps
Life Cycle: 50+ years

And blu-ray disks aren't even on the market yet... -_-;;

 

Im sure that will cost close to $1,000...

 

Well that is quite a bit cheaper than blu-ray recorders being sold in Japan.

Also, the system employs a laser light unit that allows information to be transferred in a single flash, which lowers production costs.

 

eh, youll never know until it comes out...

 

yea I just saw those today. Seems pretty crazy to me You could have your whole computer backed up onto a disk lol

 

or boot off it, lol.

 

that thing is fricken huge.... it'll take up at least 2 of my slots on my compy.
