Seagate has apparently developed a new way to optimize their perpendicular storage to allow for 421GB per a square inch. This means that you would be able to have a desktop hard drive (3.5 inch) with 2.5 terabytes of data. You could also equally have a laptop hard drive (2.5 inch) with 500GB of data. Although they have yet to announce when this will be available for purchase, this is just upping the amount of data by a lot. Currently the maximum is at 750GB for a 3.5 inch desktop hard drive.
The real questions start coming up when you ask if by the time Seagate does release this new technology to the public is if we will have flash memory or something better that can read and write at faster speeds then the outdated technology that we are using today.
