This post by Robert Scoble about Seagate has me thinking: What might Seagate or some other storage manufacturer do--right now--that would capture my attention and inspire my imagination?
Two things:
First, I'm ready for an affordable (or do I mean cheap :-)? ) terabyte storage. Yes, there are ever increasing hard drives already, but crossing the terabyte line is a physiological one that I'll pay attention to. Yeah, I have no idea how I personally will fill up a terabyte media, but I know I will. And however I fill up the drive, I know it'll add to how I use my computer today. That's what I'm looking forward to.
Second, I want much larger, much less expensive Flash drives. Why? I'm becoming more and more mobile. I want fewer moving parts. More long term reliability. Less power consumption. Faster load times. Flash is one solution that appears ready for prime time. I'm ready.
