Flash Drives Hit 12 GB

Filed in archive Storage Stuff by Eric Hanson on January 9, 2007

Verbatim announced today at CES that they've pushed the flash memory barrier to the next level with a 12 GB drive, available later this month for $179. Verbatim also announced updates to other members of its flash drive line, called Stow 'n' Go.

A friend and I were talking yesterday about how cool it will be when flash drives are big enough to replace standard hard drives in computers (something spurred on by SanDisk's announcement of an uber-expensive 32 GB solid-state drive) and Verbatim's announcement just brings that day one day closer, to my mind. Soon enough, we'll be laughing at how it used to take more than two seconds to boot up a computer.

I think solid state drives replacing HDs are a long, long, long way off. I think the price per MB will just always be too much between HDs and solid state memmory.
