So, because this is supposed to be The Longest Thread, I offer up another digression:

How about gigabytes, eh? They're really something.



[i'm not sure where, exactly, this line of discussion will go, but I'm sure someone here can think of something creative.]

Terabytes are the new gigabytes when it comes to personal storage space. Of course, your garden variety corporation probably is up to petabytes by now. I shudder to think of what kind of storage a government agency has.

I actually originally wrote "terrabytes" (sic), but I purposely changed it to "gigabytes" because I wasn't sure about the spelling (it turned out that I had it wrong), and I was too lazy to look it up.



The storage space of a government agency isn't what should concern you; their organizational scheme is what should be cause for worry!

MS moved people from large to gigantic pretty fast. I prefer smaller footprints. My first database program for our research nursery held information on each individual tree we had in our nursery, about 5000, covering 6 different species, and placement on a grid in just under 100 different plantations. Program and data fit on a 720Kb 5 1/4 inch floppy for distribution. Of course, that was DOS based. The windows version used more than twice the space.

As much as I'm not a huge fan of these type of topics, I'll let it slide.

Anyway, is it true that USB hard drives are slower than SATA hard drives?

Exabytes is where it's at. And I do where hats -- love covering up my balding scalp.

I hear USB3 is freaky fast.

USB is very slow compared to SATA. If it wasn't, we'd be using USB for hard drive interconnects, and they wouldn't have invented eSATA and Thunderbolt.
