Very nice. That should continue to put downward pressure on the 750 MB and 1 TB drives, which are already pretty cheap. Wonder if that 1.5 TB drive can work in an Antec MX1 connected to an HR2x ?

 

[Mark Holtz]

Wonder how much SD and HD material that would store?

There is 5 TB coming soon from Hitachi.

Will the 1.5 TB drive be compatible with DIRECTV HR2x DVRs off the eSATA port? I know with one DVR model (can't recall which), the drive speed had to be lowered for it to work with the DVR. Any thoughts on the new 1.5 TB drive compatibility?

What's the maximum amount that our DVRs can access - I've heard of 2TB in raid but what about more?

The press release says they won't start shipping until next month. I bet you saw one of the dual-disk enclosures instead:
