OCZ's Octane SSD - 1TB in a Consumer Drive

Although I realize the difference, I found an article from 4 years ago (2007) where Hitachi released a 1 TB hard drive aimed for consumers (there were others at the time as well): <a href="http://www.pcworld.com/article/128400/hitachi_introduces_1terabyte_hard_drive.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.pcworld.com/article/128400/hitachi_introduces_1te...</a> . Definitely an interesting read as it provides some context at the state of data relative to 2007.

Now if only they could get their drives to last longer than a year on average. :-)

It's interesting that they've bought Indilinx. OCZ has been Sandforce's most visible customer for a while. 1TB for $1,300 is a good price. The 600GB Intel SSD's that we've been purchasing at work only cost $200 less.

Getting closer to breaking that $1/GB barrier. Looking forward to seeing if reliably has improved any (buddy of mine has that random bsod issue with his OCZ SSD).

OCZ's stock went up over 20% on Thursday: <a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=OCZ&#38;t=5d&#38;l=off&#38;z=l&#38;q=c&#38;c=" rel="nofollow">http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=OCZ&#38;t=5d&#38;l=off&#38;z...</a>
