New Toshiba 60GB 1.8 inch Hard-drives

Aug 5 2004, 2:46am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Toshiba continues to push the boundaries on small hard drives for portable devices.
The Toshiba 60GB "MK6006GAH" achieves the highest capacity (93.5-gigabits of data per square inch) and the 30GB "MK3006GAL" slims down drive thickness to only 5mm. Toshiba can pack 30GB of data onto a single 1.8-inch platter, an increase of 50% over current models. Mass production will start in October. So maybe some Portable Video Players or Music Players will have 60GB by the end of the year.
More details in Toshiba Press-Release. See also our story about Toshiba's super small 0.85" hard-drive.
