Taiwanese Firms To Launch a 2 Terabyte Memory Card

Posted by Hemos on from the making-them-smaller-and-smaller dept.

Krafty Koder writes "The Register is reporting that a consortium of Taiwanese firms are to launch a 2 Terabyte memory card at the Taipei International Electronics Show (Taitronics) on the 8th of October, with mass production expected to start next year. The card will measure 3.2 x 2.4 x 0.1cm according to this DigiTimes.com report" The reports say that this is supposed to be a "new type" of card, so the details are still quite sketchy. Offical unveiling will happen in early October.

  1. The *format* supports up to 2 TB by Bastiaan · · Score: 5, Insightful

    The title appears to be exagerating a bit in announcing 2TB cards: the article itself only mentions that the format supports 2TB, not that actual 2TB cards will be available.

    Not that a 2TB memory card wouldn't be nice though :-)

  2. Re:IDE interface ? by swordboy · · Score: 5, Insightful

    If you read the article, you'll find that the new format "supports up to 2TB" of storage. They mention nothing about initial densities.

    Move along. Nothing to see here.
