Coming soon: Postage stamp-sized 1TB SSDs

The actual date of "coming soon" does kind of make it "pie in the sky", thats certainly not going to stop someone from buying the current technology :D
 
lol, 90% size reduction, and 2gbps over RF transmissions, other than the claims being ridiculous and not ready for 2 years, which when it comes to these "claims" would turn into 4-5 years well, its not even good.

We'll see a 60-80% reduction in size of cell in that time anyway, we'll probably be on somewhere close to 15-18nm by that time in nand flash production. We'll almost certainly have moved up to 3 or 4 pages per cell which will see higher density chips aswell.

The real issue is, when most cases in 3 years will still have multiple 3.5" hdd bays, and tonnes of space as cases generally get bigger to deal with bigger heatsinks and graphics cards, does anyone give a crap if you can get a postage stamp size ssd, when you've got enough space to fit 20 current 2.5" sized ssd's? I certainly don't want to pay for the privilage of smaller ssd's when I don't require it that small.

Phone storage.
High density data centres.
Very low power, very high storage.
Imagine these in a 3.5" enclosure. Multi multi TB SSD storage. No mechanical drives around.
Laptops.
Tablet PC's.
How about CCTV uses.

That high a density is really great news for small apps.
