Is that a terabyte in your pocket?
If your hard drive is filling up fast, you'll be happy to see the latest from Seagate. The drive maker has come up with new storage technology, reports Engadget, that will let you put 2.5 terabytes worth of digital stuff on your desktop computer's hard drive in a few years. Last week, Apple upped the iPod to 80 gigabytes, and Seagate has already introduced a 120-GB hard drive that could find its way into future iPods. But with Seagate's new technology, by 2009, Seagate could be making iPod-suitable drives with as much as 275 GB. That's a heck of a lot more than 1,000 songs in your pocket.
