The Register
Chris Mellor writes about a unique hard drive from Seagate.
“Spin up this Flash Rods model DeLorean stainless steel hard drive car and go back to the future with MBs costing seven times more than they need to. The 1:18 scale model is a glorious rendition of John DeLorean’s DMC-12 auto-dream re-envisioned as the Back To The Future car with its Flux Capacitor. There is a 500GB Seagate hard drive inside with a USB connector built into the back of this model motoring marvel. It costs $250, 6.94 times more expensive than the same capacity Seagate disk price of $36.00 on the net.”
