    A Nakid IBM 1 Gig MicroDrive - MUST SEE!

    One of my photo buds broke his memory card and opened it up to see what it looked like inside. Fragile little bastards arn't they?

    Wow, I thought it was flash. Never knew it was actually magnetic.

      That's a CF size isn't it? Got a ruler handy to get an idea of some scale?

          Most cf cards are I think, this is a micro drive.

          Also I dont think they are that fragile, dropped many of them quiet a number of times.

            hahaha...Cool! I love taking apart things! Can't believe they could make a hard drive that small.

              I know people have made stamp sized web servers (RAM/ROM only), anyone done a matchbox sized server with HD yet? ;)

                    It is pretty amazing.. however, things to come as nanotech becomes affordable will put that drive to shame. At my university they've made logic-based integer calculators with the same footprint as a BJ transistor (bipolar junction, "pn" junction, as opposed to FET, Field Effect, which is considerably smaller, still really small though). Recall that there are 10s of millions of transistors in your typical desktop computer's CPU.

                              I just see red X, surely there is something else inside.
