Q: Summary of what you read.
A: Hitachi today announed that they are wroking on packing more data into the same sized hard disks with what is now the world's smallest read-head technology for hard disks. While others are starting to turn to solid state drives or hybrid drives with advantages of moving parts, faster reponse times and less power consumption, Hitachi continues to make advances on the HDD front stating it continues to provide a better capcity to cost ratio than other technologies. Hitachi have been able to reduce the size of the recording heads to be down in the 30-50 nanometter range with their new technology. Hitachi said that they maybe able to actually ship this 4TB HDD produts in 2009. And reach its full potential of 4TB HDD in a desktop in 2011.
