Silly, rather pointless pub sort of Q

I'm always wondering, (yes I am sad) is the western digital's "caviar" series of HDD's so called because they are the eggs of fish, or in other words are they having a dig at Seagate's Barracuda range?! "we're eating your children" sort of thing

I've never considered that... I would just consider the Barracuda superior though

i think its more to do with cavier being associated with hi quality

So what can they call their next range of drives to better it? "Beer"?

They could call it the "faeces edition" and it would STILL be an improvement on caviar. Absolutely rank stuff!
