Come on, who here has need for more than 1TB of storage on most computers?
I care because I have my home media center, and so far almost my entire collection fits on a 1 TB Drive (plus 1TB backup). That includes years and years of our home star trek, bab5, etc, collection.
On the other hand, I have already purchased a 320GB laptop drive, and once they hit 500GB, I'll be purchasing that, too.
Until there is a real use for these bigger drives, the technology development is going to start with the biggest obvious market.
