I’ve never known which is the largest HDD in the world. In stores they had one but after researching a little bit I’ve found that another one is larger.

Now, I have the largest size. 5TB. Yes, you read correctly. 5 (five) Terra Bytes will have the HDD that would be produced by Hitachi in 2010. They say that they managed to create a technology that makes possible more that 1 TB per inch. This technology is called CPP-GMR (Current Perpendicular to the Plane Giant Magnetoresistance) and will allow more that 5 TB per 3.5inch Hard Drive.

Isn’t that incredibble? Now, I currenly have a 500GB HDD. And I have 4 partitions. How will I manage to partionate a 5TB Hard Disk? What to do with so much free space?

Via electronista, we find out that 10 TB is the amount of memory that a human brain can “storage”. I found that interesting.
