Ever since I saw that flash movie from Hitachi, the incredibly educational disco-tinged animation that practically inspired the perpendicular "revolution" as we know it, we've been waiting for the tech to make residence on those huge 3.5-inch platters in our desktops. Well, that time has finally come, with Seagate dropping their new Cheetah 15K.5 drives with up to 300GB of space. The 15,000 rpm drives claim to offer 30% better performance than their predecessors, and have a sustained data rate around 73-125 MB/s. You'll of course need SCSI, Ultra320 SCSI or fiber hookups to enjoy this speed, and you should be able to nab you very own 300GB, 147GB or 73GB drive this June. No price is announced as of yet, but it doesn't look like they'll be giving these away.

Now the question is ... what's the price?

SCSI is completely useless to 99% of the desktop market.

Heh, I thought that writing was way too coherent to have been written by yoyoman...

But seriously, folks: don't copy without citing the source. That's plagiarism, and that's bad, mmkay!

Could that be added to the forum rules?

[tooki]

Actually, yes. We're currently compiling changes to be made to the rules, I'll add that to the long list.

Assuming that it was published right? The internet is up for grabs. It is not really pubsliehd.

No, it's not. Pages on the internet are still copyrighted.

Even if they weren't copyrighted, you're still committing plagarism.

Than how come at school they always say to get your information from a book and not the internet?
