Inside Track By John C. Dvorak November 4, 1997 Look for a reemergence of disk drive wars later this year and continuing into 1998. They will be triggered by the final entrantinto the magnetoresistive (MR) head club, Western Digital. The MR head increases the capacity of hard disks by a factor of five to ten, and Western Digital has been the last holdout. Western Digital is the company that drives prices down. I'm told by disk manufacturers that it's even likely that the 9GB drive will be standard issue in 1998, and one person told me to expect to see 20GB drives selling for under $500 by late 1998. The first MR drive from Western Digital will incorporate 2.16GB on a single platter. My primary drive is a 9GB Micropolis drive, and it's a welcome relief to have such capacity available. And, in case you haven't noticed, software bloat is worsening. From the November 4, 1997 issue of PC Magazine Direct link: zdnet.com
