I dont think they make internal 1TB hard drives. I know they have external though, but its probably 2 500GB hard drives.

I've seen some enclosures that had a few drives(I'm thinking 4 250s). Also, once on newegg, I saw something about a 700G drive in the power search list. I never checked it out, though.

So, to answer your question, there might be one out there, but it's definetly not readily available.

For around £300, $600, you can get a Seagate 750GB drive....

It's probably not worth the money getting a 750gb drive, as you can get say 3 smaller drives that are much much cheaper.

A problem with that TB drive posted, it was apparently a 5.25". So, not your typical 3.5" drive size, but I'm sure it could go in a bay like a CD ROM...
