yordan 10 Report post Posted April 9, 2008 [ There's no such thing as a 30 TB drive. I'm a techy. The biggest working internal (or external) hard drive is the only fully-functional 1TB internal drive, made by Toshiba, four of which were built into a pc magazines dream machine for 2007.Yes, I know, it's actually not a single disk. The modern disk cabinets have a lot of disks, organized in RAID groups. The disks I am using are one thousand 150gb drives, organized in Logical UnitS named LUN's. Each LUN has the size you want (some megs to some terabytes) and is seen as a single disk. Of course, Windows system need smaller disks than Unix systems.So, a 30 Terabytes is simple a bunch of 200 physical 150 GB drives. Simply, I would personnally not leave it as a single drive, I would split it on quite a lot of single individual LUN's, for performances multipathing purposes.

iGuest 3 Report post Posted June 3, 2008 Just as a question, internally, what determines the capacity of the hard drive, because I always guessed it would be the size of the needle tip since the disk doesn't chane-reply by Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted November 10, 2008 Replying to iGuestThe biggest hard drive is (I think) 1 Yottabyte. It is not for public use, it is only in super computer servers. I don't think any public computers systems will be able to recognize anything that high. (It is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilobytes or 1 quintillion kilobytes) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
