Hitachi releases first ever 7,200rpm 2TB hard drive
Posted by Walt Snider on August 8th, 2009If you’ve got $330 and want to be the coolest geek on the block, grab Hitachi’s 2TB HDD! It spins at 7,200 RPM and uses 10% less energy than older models when idling, helping you save your pennies for that pr0n subscription. Officially named Deskstar 7K2000, this will continue the race for larger capacity, faster speeds and less energy consumption. Within a year, we’ll see this drive at $150, if not $100.
Right now you can buy a 1TB drive for $80 if you look hard enough. Congrats, Hitachi! Now let’s see a 1TB SSD that I can afford!
