Steve,
I see 11 and 12 gig IDE drives all over the place. A year ago, 6 gigs was the biggest. Most people who got 6 gigs barely have 2 gigs full. In a market where 95% of the users need only <3-4 gigs who's gonna buy the 11-12 gig drives with the premium attached?
The increase in size of the drives seems to be far outpacing the need,
commoditizing the mid and low range size drives.
