Sure, why not. Well, maybe its a matter of size. My local stores don't seem to want to sell me anything smaller than a 350G, and cost per byte, they are EXPENSIVE! it's actually cheaper to buy a 1T drive. And a 2T derive is on;y about 25% more than that. But my point with the RPM argument is that a lot of the time we aren't dealing with stuff that size. I've commented a number of times on how easy it is to arrange stuff for backup onto 5G DVDs:
