First 2TB Internal Drive: Western Digital WD20WEADS

wdfcaviargreen_sata32Just the other day I ordered a Western Digital WD10EADS 1TB Caviar Green Drive from Newegg. Today Western Digital announced the first 2 TB internal drive, it will sell for $299. Specs include 32MB of cache, a four-platter design (500GB per platter), and 400Gb/in2 areal density. A hands-on preview can be found at Hot Hardware. Keep in mind when planning to purchase a drive of this capacity, you should really consider purchasing a second for redundancy.
