It's still not solid-state.
With recent advances in solid-state flash memory, if someone had enough balls to make a flash hard drive using the 3.5" size now standard, I'd bet it would break the terabyte barrier easily.

Not to mention they would be more reliable without the moving parts, they would generate less heat, and they would save on electrical consumption.

Still think perpendicular is all that?
