Seagate has officially announced its 3TB FreeAgent GoFlex Desk external hard drive today, nearly two months after it was first rumoured.

This comes just in time, according to Parks Associates analyst Kurt Scherf, who said: “Consumers who are active in digital media creation and consumption will witness their digital media storage needs grow nine-fold by 2014, driving the demand for higher capacity, easy-to-use storage.”

A recent Parks Associates report suggested that the average household will need 900GB of storage by 2014, so we can probably expect more substantial hard drives to surface in the near future.
