exactly this price dor external 1 TB HD. just i cannot imagine what i can store in it (all my programs and electronic pdf-library occupies less than 30GB), but it's maybe good way to throw away all my CDs where I kept archive photos. and still it will be empty.

A Western Digital WD1TB costs 89€ via Finnish netshops - a bit more in the store.

Do you mean football pitch sized?

Getting 15TB inside a football twenty years ago would indeed have been colossal. :)
