Working on a project... need some input on this narrowed-down group

If you choose the last option, please remember that it MUST start with "Tera" as that is the capacity were talking about here.

Man there are some really good ones here guys. Thanks a bunch. This is "going" to happen very soon, so please keep them coming.

After looking more online I am finding products using teraraid, terastore and teraspace, so I am at a loss on those... maybe. I wont be able to tell you which one I settle on till I have a working prototype which should be in 30 days or so, then I'll post pics and let you know :)


More ideas please.

Hey, you stole that from my post! ;) Actually, I was just saying I don't like the Tera portion of the name. Very limiting and not very catchy...

I voted for TeraStore out of the choices given in the poll, but some great ideas in the posts too.

TeraVault is nice. I like TeraSafe also. TeraLAN? TeraServe? (Since TeraServer is taken)

What I really want to know, however, is how do I get on the list to receive advance promotional samples!??

TeraBrick ;)

I like TeraStorage, or, like Jim suggested, TeraStor. Although I'm not sure you should fool around with caps in a product name (i.e. TeraStoR) :)
I'd be happy with a TeraDrive as well. I'm sure it'll catch on since it's in the same spirit as MegaDrive, which most of you have nice memories from I'm sure ;)

Bell, Bull.

i figured a Bell would be a neat, defined, solid, shape. easier to keep in mind, a good image when you are talking about "archives" which is prettymuch what a terrabyte storage device would be used for.

whereas a Bull is defined more by it's huge PHYSICAL size, it's aggressiveness and power, therefore better for targeting at the young boys market ;), perhaps if you were marketing the device as a way of making your computer more powerful and aggressive. not neat.

i think with a storage device that huge, you'd be looking for an image of neat, clean, solid. dare i say "mac".
