100GB, 9.5mm thick HD from Toshiba

zmcnulty writes "Toshiba has announced their new hard drive today with a 100GB capacity. It's a 2.5 inch drive, is only 9.5mm tall, and supports ATA/100. The (Japanese) Impress Watch article I translated offers a couple more details, though not many. The OEM sample price is about $1,092 USD...but don't ask me what that means for consumers. The previous capacity title was held by IBM with their 80GB Travelstar."

    And I'll get the answers out of the way as well:
    1. - because for $250 you are getting something that can actually play the music...instead of a really thin brick that would just holds music.

    2. Yes. As well as every other data format that can be stored on a hard drive.
