Read the articles, there's actually a lot of sense in doing the transition. Well, other than that XP might kick some fits, although most people should be moving away from XP by now. In fact, the change may actually increase speed.[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/Igorod/troopdod.jpg[/img]

Anyone else find it hard to believe that there won't be a performance decrease in the HDD having to split the chunks, especially when it comes to fragmentation?

No, I'm using Raptors for my main. All my green is external (I also don't like Green because it sounds like something that Al Gore is stuffing down my throat)

But to answer your question, no. No you will not be able to buy 10tb drives next year. I actually doubt that any manufacturer will release anything higher than the current 2tb drive by WD.

I do like to make a rig with 50TBs just to say I have one

You could actually get ~90TB with 2TB drives in that thing.
