Seagate Momentus thin - 160GB and 250GB - Shipping soon
Brandon Davenport
This is a 7mm thick HDD that is going to make your SSD want to loose some weight. The Momentus Thin (yes that is the name) will make its very official unveiling at CES here in just a few weeks, where it'll be available in a fair 160GB and a hefty 250GB capacity and with 8MB of cache, a 5400RPM spin speed and a SATA 3Gbps interface. This is going to be the most useless piece of hardware for consumers because other than it is thin, it is slower, has less capacity and may be more vulnerable to damage. There is however a huge market that is growing and it is the ultra light category. Netbooks, Tiny desktops and thin laptops. All we can say is Apple will be all over this.
