InnoDisk unveils miniscule 128GB nanoSSD at Computex
The last time InnoDisk made waves, it was just about this time last year with its 128GB FiD 2.5-inch SATA 10000 SSD. At this year's Computex, the company was showcasing yet another new storage model: the 128GB SATA nanoSSD. The tiny device was even strapped onto a motherboard that was vibrating out of control in order to show its resistance to the shakes, which honestly, is the most provocative aspect of the whole thing. Hop on past the break to see what we mean.



















Whats next, super micro ssd that is resistant to water!
actually are you aware that nano is 10^-9 whereas micro is 10^-6. so you would be kinda of be "un"-developing the tech.
PlanckSSD
good one timerider!
Minuscule
hahaha.
Holy shit, that is small!
(That's what she said.)
Classic...love it!!!!
Hey, you're not supposed to do it yourself.
...
thats what she said
Well, at least it vibrates.
How fast is it?
"wan sidee megahbyte pur sekonds..."
haha but c'mon, you think there are a lot of people in the U.S. that can speak more than their own native language?
@ Idlemind
At least you can understand them speaking our language. I bet they wouldn't understand a word you tried to speak in theirs.
One-Hundred Million Dollars.... muahhhahahahahaha
That's just amazing
Hopefully this thing won't take as long as SSDs to fall to a consumer-friendly pricepoint although that's very unlikely
We can dream
Don't really care unless this thing makes its way into Desktops/Laptops/Netbooks/Phones/etc and its at a REASONABLE price comparable to standard HDs (AHEM REGULAR SIZED SSD)
In time these should be cheaper.. less materials used to create then, riiight?

Smaller does not mean cheaper for the semi-conductor world. Unless you are talking about blank wafers.
Performance is a concern with these small things I think, barriers still to overcome.
It's not the size that matters, it's how it's used.
that's NOT what she said.
They missed the 5 1/4 HDD in their little "evolution" chart...
Don't forget those big ass hard drives that used to take up a whole room.
Nice! Do want!!!
hmm... when r they shrinking it to the size of a micro-SD card?
Ahh he said 160mb/sec write speed.. very nice.
um.... yes please!
how are you guys so impressed? havent you ever seen a compact flash card before?
Reminds me of the iPod Invisa

That's going to make some sweet Media Players :)
I'll take a dozen. wait. that might be expensive...
not if you can run fast enough
I see myself with one of those....yeah!
Hey look! That's the table Mr. BlurryCam uses for his photos!
vibrating stuff on video camera=hypnotic.
I can finally envision E-SATA drives replacing USB thumb drives. That could make having multiple OSes on one laptop a bit more fun.
You can already get ESATA thumbsticks offering 90MB/s read an 45MB/s write. Some also have USB connectors as well and in the UK an 8GB one costs around £30
Can you imagine a couple of those plugged directly into a Mobo in a RAID configuration, oh dear my pants just got tight all of a sudden.
This could make for an insanely thin PC actually.
I'd be wary of buying anything from a company with a display that looks like it was constructed for a 5th grade science project.
dude dont diss the display - its EPIC. They're so confident in the epicness of the SSD they didnt want the display to steal its limelight..
BEHOLD! The Insanely Great 128GB iPod Shuffle.
It costs more than a fully decked out Mac Pro but look how many songs you can put on it now.
when we ll see at least 512Gb SSD for acceptable prizes?
Designed for the new Mark V programable vibrator.
Put that on the Zune HD and i'm sold
I can see this hitting the next iteration premium smart phones pretty quick.
Well can you imagine it. You could simply plug it into your mobo and this thing could hold your OS+programs. No need for wires, hard drives etc. I like the idea.
I have been planning to build a computer desk. A real computer desk, the kind with everything built in and out of sight unless called for (optical drive raising or tilting up, etc). The way things are going it's gonna be easier and easier to do so. Wonder if this will be on the market come end of the year.
