    I already have a 2TB Barracuda, just not this version, the one before it. I'm pretty happy with it as it fits all my storage needs.

    What the heck, that looks like an awesome piece of hardware. And to think that I don't even have half a terabyte. :eek:

    Introductory price is way up, but I assume this is gonna go down later. By then maybe a 4TB HDD is out. :D
