4TB drives are showing up at around $200 each at the usual locations.
Not quite as good a $/GB pricing as the 3TB drives, but that is the current
premium for the larger capacity.  Predicting future pricing is notoriously
hard, so pick your favorite random number for when you might see a 4TB
drive at pre-flood $/GB pricing (especially now that there is a dearth of
competition driving prices downward).  I would not be surprised to see 5TB
drives to be available RSN for certain markets (5 1TB platters), but those
are likely to be targeted to specific content providers.  2TB platters have
been demonstrated (not on a real drive), but will probably not be seen in
the wild for quite some time (in Internet years).
