One head for reads and one for read/write. Uhh? How about databases for websites? the ones where read and write ops are needed...
So there is still a security hole basically.

Tokyo-based Scarabs has developed a prototype of the hard drive, which has a read-only head and a read-write head. The Web server can only read from the drive, theoretically making it impossible for attackers to deface the site or otherwise modify data.
For updating the site, an internal PC can be connected to the drive via the read-write head. "Each head works independently, so no synchronous control between two heads is needed," the company says on its Web site.
So there is still a security hole basically.
