Hitachi has a 7,200 RPM 400GB Hard Drive and a 10,000 RPM 300GB Hard Drive commercially available. It comes in SATA :eek2: I haven't priced one yet but I am sure they are expensive.

I guess its like the orginal 1gig's eventually they will just become common place, its hard to believe a machine that would need more than 200gig tops really, speically for personal use i mean thats a lot of naked ladies!

As far as I know at this point the power supplies that are being shipped are not coming with serial ATA power connectors so that requires you to have a adapter.

I beg to differ. These power supplies offer SATA support and have been for a while. http://www.dealsonic.com/posuwiseatac.html
