thats pretty badass.

with power consumption rates less than five per cent of current hard drives

less than half the weight

will also include performance rate by a claimed 150 per cent

much quieter and emits less heat

Wow...the only drawback seems to be the fact that 16 GB isn't such a huge amount anymore. But that's bound to increase soon. Besides, this would be great for things like HD MP3 players. I'm a big fan of a 'no moving parts' system, because things like quick movements don't have the same potential effect. In concept, it seems to me that it would be more reliable and less likely to just randomly 'crash' or 'die'.

yah personally though I have not had a hard drive crash on me but a pe3n drive but that may have been in water.

those do look really good but price? capacity? compatability?

probably better off in mp3 for now where they dont have to fit into standard drive bays.
