I need an IDE unit for windows NOW!!!!!! - Blu-ray Forum

Anonymous · 05-26-2003, 07:31 PM

Just can't wait. Got too much data (over 300 GB a week) and backing up to DVD-R takes too long, it's expensive and compatibility etc sucks. Right now we buy 200GB IDE hard discs like crazy just for back ups.

A lot of ppl I know needs right now:
-Maximun capacity: 27GB MINIMUN
-Most compatibility: Media must be read and written w/o problems
-Security: Media must last and be "scratch proof"
-Cheap media: $5 tops - A 7200 200GB ATA133 8MB buffer hard disk can be bought for $200.
-Speed: it's always nice and 8000KB/s is a minimun, but will put up with "low" speeds for price, security and compatibility.

Whoever comes up with this first, got me waiting in line to buy.

you're a funny guy!

heh... Blu Ray media is way too expensive for you.

I'd suggest a good old fashioned Tape drive. some of the modern ones are very fast and reliable.

You need a DLT tape drive. Check them out here.

... or 500GB, 30Mbps native (1TB, 60Mbps compressed) SA1T1, see http://www.sony.net/Products/storagesolution/sait.html

SAIT2, at 1TB, 60MBps native, is due later this year, with SAIT3 (2TB, 120MBps) in 2006 and SAIT4 (4TB, 240MBps) in 2008. Note that the professional disc for data [PDD] currently offers 23GB at 9MBps for around $40 per disc, with 50GB, 11MBps due in 2005 and 100GB, 43MBps in 2007, but if it went multi-headed and double-sided it could offer 200GB at 86MBps in 2007. ... but 23GB or 500GB tape will have to do you in the meantime... :?

Let me guess...English must be a second language for you??? What the hell are you talking about???

Are you asking to buy IDE hard drives because you need to back up your huge 300gb worth of porn that you download every week???

"your clothes, give dem to me, NOW!!"

Ok, sorry, that was totally inappropriate for a newbie...
