2Terabyte External Hard Drives: Western Digital Showing off

Western Digital have gone that extra mile and have recently topped off their entire range of external hard drives with a huge 2 Terabytes of storage, as if to say the previous 1.5 Terabytes weren’t enough.

“The explosive growth in devices that create rich multimedia content from digital cameras to music players to digital video camcorders continues to drive consumers’ insatiable demand for more storage capacity.”

“The popular My Book family of external drives delivers peace of mind in a simple solution that can provide remote access, sharing, protection and storing of precious files” said Jim Welsh, vice president of Western Digital’s branded products.

It’s going to take a pretty substantial amount of effort to come close to filling them drives, which is somewhat pleasing.

The 2TB versions of the drives are currently priced between $749 and $799 specifically dependant on the model. Details, on the link. How long will it be before we start seeing Western Digital roll out their 10TB drives?
