Toshiba Develops 0.85'' Hard Disk

Posted by timothy on from the smaller-is-better dept.

onebuttonmouse writes "Toshiba have set a new record for the world's smallest hard disk at a tiny 0.85". Surely this will have some great applications in mobile devices, although the article does not mention power consumption. It'd be great if this made it into the iPod like the 1.5" Toshiba drive that resides in the current models."

    Are there other portable players that can use the 1.5" drive like the iPod? Preferrably one that can play Ogg and I can buy without the hard drive. I got a bunch of these laying around doing nothing.
