Seriously impressive! Around ten years ago we had a 1TB store delivered to Cineca (an Italian supercomputing centre) - I /believe/ it was the first TB drive delivered by Cray to Europe - and, IIRC, cost >1.2M USD. Even if that figure is out by a factor of ten, it's still a remarkable reflection on the pace of technology that you can now build one "at home". Patrick
