here heard anything about the new products supposedly coming
from Terastor?<<

Dumar -

When they announced the Rocket Drive last year, Syquest said it would use Terastor technology to acheive the high data density of 4.7GB. As far as I know, Terastor does not plan to market any products at retail. They will license their technology to drive manufacturers.

Check out their website at terastor.com

Well, silly me. I just read the FAQ at that website myself, and discovered that Terastor does seem to be planning to introduce products to the marketplace directly. It's rather hard to tell from the FAQ. They also have formed strategic partnerships with several other companies including Seagate (which will make the flying optical heads for them), Imation (supplying media) and Quantum (??).

Syquest is not a strategic partner, but that doesn't mean they couldn't be a customer of Terastor, or an OEM.
