Woaah!!

in 10 years we'll have video phones!

umm we already do heard of 3G extremely cool network that gives you broadband speeds on the go.

 

[sam fisher]

Yeah I know. I was joking. Didn't know it gave you broad band speeds! cool.

Is it just me or does '2TD' not roll off the tongue like 2Gig does? I keep reading 2D like a right spanner

Maybe we'll have to start calling it 2 Trig...

What are you on about? 2TB (Terabyte), which is 2048GB. So perhaps calling it 2 Tera would be more sensible?

 

[bringoutthegimp]

2tb sounds like a disease. how in the fuck did they manage to make it so small? my guess is that this thing will cost like £1000 or something like that

 

[WrongEyedJesus]

Its funny that we could look back on this conversation in 10 years and go "How the hell did we get by with just 2TB"

I was talking to a mate the other day about a 20MB hard he found at the bottom of a cupboard. He said he remembered it costing him a fortune!

Mind you he also said he used to de-frag the harddrive on his washing machine that was also about 20MB. He could tell by the way it vibrated when it needed doing.

Some people are just too techie!

 

[bringoutthegimp]

wait..............did i read that right? his washing machine had a hard drive? why did it need a hard drive

 

[zenocha]

i hate to break it to you guys but 2TB is just the maximum amount of data the format will support, for example sonys pro memory sticks also support upto 2TB but that doesnt mean they get anywhere near that, probably the more interesting thing about these cards is the 120MB/s transfer rates which is a lot faster than SD or MMC cards.

I was thinking that by the time you get down to that dense data it's going to be corrupted quite often.

Sound like us humans, Some dense people can be corrupt quite often.

[Efompor]

Holy Shit you could fit almost 4 days of HIGH DEFINITION movies on a card like that! And its the size of a MMC card!

Now that you will have to ask him about, but I trust him not to be lying to me. He could tell by putting his hand on the top of it during the spin cycle when it needed de-fragging. Apparently the machine would run alot more smoothly after the process.

Presumably the HD contained all the cycles for the machine or something. Given that the average mobile phone has far more memory than the Eagle moon lander its hardly suprising is it?
