Re: Seagate Confirms 1TB Hard Disk Drive

Won't be available to me (affordable) in a new system until late 2008 or
first part of 2009.

Re: Seagate Confirms 1TB Hard Disk Drive

Sounds like the race is on to see which manufacturer can produce the first
hard drive whose warranty will expire before it finishes formatting.
Maybe we need a new paradigm - a convention to start using hard drive space
even as the remainder of the drives capacity continues to format.
Just my 2¢ worth.

You can do that already, make 2 partitions, use the first while the second
is formating

Re: Seagate Confirms 1TB Hard Disk Drive

But why not use the existing partition while it is still formatting?
That's what I'm talking about.
Remember how you used to have to re-boot after installing a program? Once
you had to do that, but now, the times they are a changin'.

Re: Seagate Confirms 1TB Hard Disk Drive

Doesn't Windows' Quick Format already do that?

How can it delete files if you are using them?

Re: Seagate Confirms 1TB Hard Disk Drive

I am running RC2, Office 2003 and several other applications, I have system Restore turned off and the paging file on the 2nd hard drive and all I am using is 8.33 gigabytes of a 60 gigabyte drive. I don't foresee the need for a terabyte hard drive for a long time.
