Nope.............they have 4Gig CF cards now with no moving parts.............and I actually think they are upto 9Gig CF cards (Not MicroDrives with moving parts)

Very expensive though.


DAMN! That's just EVIL! I hadn't looked online... Just what I'd seen in the stores... Fry's, Microcenter, CompUSA, etc. I wonder what speeds these puppies run at  :-D

*update* 8GB @ 80X?! *pass out*

A4000D, A3640 OC-36.3MHz, custom tower, Mediator A4000D. Diamond Banshee 16M, Indivision AGA 4000, GVP HC+8.

Mac Mini 1.5GHz, that might run MorphOS someday, when the fools who own it come to the realization that 30 minutes just isn\'t enough time to play with it enough to decide whether or not you like it enough to cough up $200.

 - Someone please design SOME kind of DIY accelerator for the A4000. :D -

That as maybe, But flash media doesn`t spin at 5400 or 7200 rpm. And try shoving your harddrive into a digital camera or mp3 player. :roll:
