The day when the capacity of HDD is calculated in terabytes

August 6, 1961 Gherman Titov orbited the Earth and became the second man to walk in space after Yuri Gagarin. The aim of the expedition was to survey the planets in the video, and identifying the possibility of a prolonged stay in weightless mode, and it works. A total of Gherman Titov stayed in space for 25 hours and 18 minutes. Astronaut even managed to get some sleep. As you know, Yuri A. his historic flight was made in 1 hour and 48 minutes, round the Earth only once. But Valery Bykovsky, driving the ship “Vostok-5”, in June 1965 had been in a state of weightlessness for about five days. During this time he circled the Earth 81 times.

August 6, 2009, Nikon introduced the world’s first camera is further equipped with a projector. The device is called the COOLPIX S1000pj. It can project an image with a diagonal from 5 to 40 inches at a maximum distance of two meters. Easy to guess that the motive behind the creation of this device was the desire of the manufacturer to cater to those users who like to watch pictures and videos in a big company. For greater convenience together with the camera was a wireless remote control.

The camera-projector gathered in a miniature metal housing with dimensions of 99,5×62,5×23 mm, it weighs only 115 grams. Lens covering the focal range in size of 28-140mm, sensor resolution to 12.1 MP.

Attempts “to cross a hedgehog with a snake” being the time. On our minds was produced nettop with projectors. For example, the GIGABYTE BRIX Projector. Distinguished in his time Lenovo is presenting to the public the tablet Yoga Tab 2 Pro also equipped with a projector. But it is unlikely that such devices can be called commercially successful.

August 6, 2009, the company HGST (a division of Hitachi, now owned by Western Digital) has released the world’s first hard disk capacity of 2 TB. Model Deskstar 7K2000 has acquired the rapid engine torque spindle speeds of 7200 rpm In this case for the buffer has been allocated just 32 MB of memory. Excellent performance for 2009! At the heart of this hard drive lay five pancakes size of 400 Gbytes each. Used classic perpendicular magnetic recording technology.

HGST are all great. They constantly find themselves first in the business. So, last year was released the first 3.5-inch hard drives with 6 TB capacity and 8 TB, respectively. And in early 2015 model with capacity of 10 TB. In all these devices is helium, and the classical perpendicular recording technology. The density of the pancake for 10-terabyte devices is nothing short of 1.66 TB.
