Following the Samsung prototype at the latest CeBIT, Seagate has now announced that it is selling a 3.5 inch hard drive equipped with 1 TB platters.

The drive will first of all be included in Samsung’s range of external hard drives (the GoFlex range) with 3 TB models using just three platters (surface density of 625 Gb per square inch). A three platter Barracuda XT 3 TB is also likely to be launched, though no date has yet been given.
