Two feckin' terabytes of storage!!

And all for just 100 each.

Why the hell do I want 1000 GB of storage, let alone 2000?

Paranoia, that's why.

I lost some data years ago from a disk failure. It was painful. Very painful. The only copy of an application that I was going to launch (and it was a very good time to launch that particular app.) was on the drive.

It didn't make it through the crash.

The drives will be popped into a RAID1 configuration, one mirroring the others data - not perfect but not bad.

I bought two 320 GB drives a couple of years ago and filled them in no time at all. I'm sure it will be different this time....
