Less than 1 month later!
So, 8 Terabyte was the newer hotness in August, now at the start of September HGST has a 10 (Terabyte drive ready! (But I still hate Shingled Magnetic Recording)
Whopping 10TB disks spin out of HGST – plus 3.2TB flash slabs

So, 6 Terabyte was the new hotness in April, now at the end of August Seagate has an 8 Terabyte drive ready!
That 8TB Seagate MONSTER? It's HERE... Have a look (sans specs)

Just when I plan to catch up...
Most of my machines have 1TB drives and 2TB external backup drives.
I was thinking about moving to multiple Virtual Machines running on the desktop PC with a 4TB drive to hold the VMs and another for backups.
This means losing having the SSD as Windows 7 boot drive unless I get a bigger SSD for Windows 7 and the Hypervisor and keep Linux machines on a HDD.
Still, as of today I know what the server needs for VM backups - Seagate brings out 6TB HDD
Get a datasheet here (PDF).

Ten Songs Challenge
Well, I know at least 10 good songs that I always want to have around.
Finding near approximations to my home versions took a little longer, but here (in no particular order) you go!
Everlast - Ends
Massive Attack - I against I
Jean Elan - Where's your head at
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
After Midnight Project - Take Me Home
Booker T. And The Mg's - Green Onions
Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight
M.I.A. - Paper Planes
Eddie Vedder with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - The long road (My version is 16:37 long)
Ng Pei Sin - Misty Heart (From my Mod collection, an XM actually)
I could easily do 100 if I had the time! Torley Wong and Madonna very nearly made the list for starters!

The Omega-3 and B12 Myth
It looks like being vegetarian is good for health, but not necessarily longevity for many practitioners.
A Vegan explains some worrying study results for Meat-eaters, Vegetarians and Vegans.
It's a worthwhile 1 Hour 15 Minutes of nice explanations and tips that we can all use -

So, What foods are good for you?
Eggs? - Not really
Avocados? - If only
Coconut Oil? - Hell No
Garlic and Flavinoids? - at least vs Fish and white meat induced cancer in breast cells
Acia Berries or Pomegranate Juice? - Finally, a pretty positive result (if you can actually get them)!
