So if you're a
regular Gizmodo reader this isn't new news -- in fact, it's two months
old -- but Toshiba is releasing a new 60GB version of the very
same harddrive that is used inside the 20 and 40GB versions of the
Apple iPod. And despite what Apple will try to tell you, they've
already ordered a big mess of them; conveniently they are missing a
top-end, $500 model fourth-generation iPod. It's not a question of
if, it's a question of when.

JVC's Mystery Hard Drive Camcorders
Revealed: They're Hard Drive Camcorders
09/14/2004 11:18 AM
Oops, I almost forgot about these new cameras
announced from JVC - the ones they've been hyping up to no end as
their big "mystery product." Basically, they're camcorders with hard
drives in them - a 4GB microdrive, to be exact. They look pretty cool
and everything, but they're really most interesting because they are
the first consumer camcorder with a built-in hard drive, not because
they do anything particularly unique. That being said, I fully support
this idea, and think most consumer recording technology should move to
hard drives as soon as possible (I'll be waiting until you can get
something with a bigger hard drive than 4GB for less than $1,500,
though).
Both models (the GZ-MC100 and the GZ-MC200) can record up to 9Mbps
in MPEG2, though, which is DVD quality.

Memory Reading Hard Drive
06/30/2004 12:37 PM
The Vosonic X'S-Drive Pro VP 300 is 40GB external
hard drive that is clunky, cheap-looking, has a crappy text-only
integrated screen, plays MP3s, but not WMA, AAC, or OGG Vorbis, and
can only read from one card from its card reader at a time. So why
would any photographer want it? Because it's cheap, it does the
primary job it was designed to do (act as remote backup for memory
cards), and can accept as many additional 2.5-inch laptop hard drives
as you want to swap into it, meaning that all other things aside, you
can purchase this single $335 drive and continue to upgrade it for
only the price of additional hard drives.

We
been hearing rumblings about hard drives being put into cellular
phones for a while now (we've certainly advocated it), but now a
company called "Hoya Corp" revealed in a quarterly earnings statement
that two major hard drive players - Hitachi Global Storage
Technologies and Seagate - are planning on developing 1" hard drives
for cellular phones. I sincerely hope that the hard drives are
technically incapable of storing ringtones, because I can't imagine
what life would be like if people could fit about 10,000 of the damn
things in one device. I mean, really; 10,000 songs in your pocket? Who
would want that?

An Ode To The Hard Drive
An Ode To The Hard Drive
05/27/2004 09:35 AM
You know it's likely to be a slow news day when the first thing you
turn up is, basically, an ode to the unsung hard drive.
Hard drives are, admittedly, a fairly unsexy business. Then again,
you might think the same thing about semiconductors - and they seem to
get plenty of attention. Either way, storage is very important to
consumers - as the article notes in looking at how quickly people
focus on the size of their iPod hard drives or just
how much space their Gmail account really has. Even the leading
people in the storage business are quite colorful and certainly
unique, which should get them much more attention. However, when it's
all said and done, no matter how important your hard drive is (just
think how people react when their hard drives die), and no matter how
quickly they improve in just how much data they can hold, not too many
people find themselves particularly interested in the "boring" hard
drive business.
Welland USB On-The-Go Hard Drive

EverythingUSB is mentioning
that Taiwanese OEM Welland has -- at least as far as they know -- the
first USB On-The-Go (OTG) hard drive. It also has a built-in card
reader, USB host (duh), and a rechargeable battery. USB OTG is pretty
simple, and pretty great. By adding a USB host to storage, you can
hook your digital camera or anything else that supports the standard
up to it and transfer data without needing to hook up to a PC. That is
a positive thing.
That being said, I have a hard time believing this is the first USB
OTG hard drive to see the light of day.

If terms like 'areal density'

the inner workings of your hard drive is a good read. They explain
what exactly makes up one of the most crucial pieces of hardware in
your machine and how every single bit gets recorded and read. If
you've never taken apart an old drive, toyed with the platters and
flung the heavy magnets towards your friend, you should pick one up
and do just that after reading this piece—it's fascinating
technology, truly.
