Fudzilla reports that Seagate has started shipping the world’s first 4TB drives with 1TB platters



It is simple math really, higher density results in higher transfer speeds, and using fewer platters helps keep things simple and cheap. Seagate claims the drive can deliver data rates of up to 146MB/s, while consuming 35 per cent less power than the competition.
