Here’s a little nugget you may not have already been aware of — Apple’s iPad is only capable of registering USB hard drives (via the Camera Connection Kit , of course) that are 32GB or smaller, which may or may not bum a vast majority of you out.

Just under two months ago, Seagate pushed the capacity envelope once more by introducing a $250 3TB hard drive meant to be used by archivists the world over. It all sounds peachy on paper, but AnandTech managed to uncover a dirty little secret about the drive that serious power users should know about. For starters, the crew cracked open the case to find a 3.5-inch, five platter Barracuda XT — that’s a drive that Seagate doesn’t intend to sell for internal use until the end of the year, but it’s available now if you’re willing to spring for its enclosure.

So, we’ve good news and bad news. Given that we aren’t accepting votes for which you’ll be fed first, we’ll go ahead and extol the virtues of cramming a full terabyte of space into a 2.5-inch form factor. Not that this feat hasn’t been accomplished before, but the 2.5-inch 1TB HDD realm could certainly use the competition

PC chassis enthusiasts (yeah, there is such a thing) will surely know that Thermaltake ’s V9 Black Edition has been out for a couple of years now, but there’s evidently quite a bit of difference in the V9 BlacX Edition. Aside from that awkward letter change, of course
