You can only download so many MP3's, so when Western Digital Announced a 120 GB Hard Drive, we think they're targeting the consumer video editing and professional video editing markets. Who else can only store 5 hours of their content on such a small space? Us. Yesterday, Western Digital, who has been pushing the envelope on storage space lately announced a 120 GB Hard Drive. Wow, that's big!

The 7,200 RPM drive is a follow up to their 100 GB and 80 GB models which they announced earlier this year. The company reported that the drive can hold up to five hours of digital video. In the press release they did not say what they would be selling the drive for but expect it in the $200-$400 range.
