Cornice Tiny Hard Drives Get Larger
Posted by Jonathon Watkins in "HARDWARE" @ 03:00 PM
Spotted at the Tech Report, XbitLabs are reporting that: "Cornice, a well-known producer of ultra-small hard disk drives, broadened its lineup of "Storage Element" disks with 1GB, 1.5GB and 2.0GB models. The miniature HDDs can fit into typical key-chain and target the markets where historically flash memory was dominating. Since its introduction in June of 2003, the Cornice Storage Element has enjoyed rapid adoption in consumer electronic (CE) devices from companies like Philips, RCA, Rio, and Creative Labs. Measuring only 42.8mm x 36.4mm x 5mm and weighing only 14.5 grams, the Cornice SE HDDs are compatible with IDE standard and offer enough performance for music and video playback while still maintaining low power consumption."
You can read more about the drives at the Cornice website here. Is it just me that's wondering when we will see one of these integrated into a Pocket PC? It must happen soon, surely? :?
