It's A Digital Disease!

Given how Seagate and Western Digital are both releasing 30+ internal HDDs, do you think that they might release larger USB powered HHD's? Presently, the largest USB powered drive I know about is the Western Digital 6TB drive, which frankly, is not quite big enough for my needs. At the same time, I don't want a large bulky drive that requires a separate power cable. I need something that is simple, compact, so that I can carry it in my purse hassle free. It would be great if one of the major external drive manufactures would release something that was at least 8TB but still as small as a current "My passport" drive that only requires USB to power it.
