   A CD has problems handling 52x, I don't think that 5 second DVDRW will ever exist.1TB is not useful, HDDs can't even do 300MB. For networks with lots of traffic, it then turns useful. A single wire for a whole building!

   uh one word... beautifulthey were talking about over a network i think... somebody would need to create a faster smart card with a lot of storage space... it's insane to imagine how fast a dvd would have to spin recording at 1 tb

   recordable media or not. no drive of any sort can handle data transfers of that speed so you would have to have 1 tb of memory, which is ridiculous.

   When the storage medium of HDD's becomes flash memory, this would come into it's own.
