Seagate is shipping an 8TB disk drive to selected OEM customers like object data-storing CleverSafe, with general availability next quarter. Tech details are sparse.
 
We know the data devouring beast fits in a standard 3.5-inch drive slot and has a 6Gbit/s SATA interface.
Seagate says it has “enterprise reliability and is for cloud content, object storage and back-up/disaster recovery storage".
 
I could build quite a media server with a few of these 🙂
