Samsung has announced a 160GB 1.8 inch hard drive that would be suitable for use in devices including Apple iPod. Other than the size, the hard drive features 4200RPM, 15ms seek time, sub-1W power consumption. Devices like MP3 players and personal media players are using the 1.8 inch HDD as the storage medium to support music files, video and Internet access. The high end iPod currently tops out at 80GB. Both Toshiba and Samsung have made steady advancements in these micro hard drives over the past year, but Apple has not yet taken advantage of these higher capacities. So we can expect to see 160GB Apple iPod in the near future. No work on pricing or availability.
