What are the biggest hard drives in the world in terms of storage capacity? Are they worth the high price tag? Thanks a lot!

I think 2TB is the largest that one can find.

I think Micronet Platinum RAID hard drive is providing 10TB of capacity for huge data storage.;)

The Western Digital 4TB "MY Book Studio" Edition II Dual Drive Storage System is available. It is a Desktop series.

I've actually been researching this drive for a few months now. Has anyone used the Book Studio yet? I'm looking for a reliability or usability review before investing in one.

Haha, I just realized this thread started back in 2009. Is 4TB still the "world's biggest" harddrive available? At least it's bigger than 2TB, the previous "world's biggest"!

I didn't notice that either, and the way technology changes, i'm surprised I cant get 2TB on a thumb drive ;-) I've seen some nice 2 TB setups but nothing larger.

when you have 10 TB storage, why do companies opt for 2TB storage? isn't 10 TB cheaper in comparison?
