Hitachi promises 4 terabyte desktop drives by 2011
Hitachi engineers were able to develop a new technology, with which you can significantly reduce the size of the recording head for HDD. That, in turn, will allow you to create drives for desktop PCs up to 4 TB and for laptops up to 1 TB.
The technology, called CPP-GMR, allows you to create a head about 30-50 nm in size, which will increase the recording density to 0.5-1 Tbit per square inch. For example, today the average density of common products of the company is 200 Gbit per square inch.
In commercial products, this technology, according to Hitachi forecasts, may appear in 2009. But in most cases CPP-GMR will most likely not be released before 2011.
