New Sony Microdrives -- Will They Work On Z?
« on: November 28, 2004, 12:56:06 pm »
Just came across this news:

[span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\']New Sony Microdrives[/span]

Designed to fit the Compact Flash+ Type II interface, Sony Microdrive offers a cost-effective solution for expanding consumer storage needs such as high-resolution digital photos and MPEG video. Microdrive also features a high-performance 97.9 Mbps data transfer rate ...

Sony Microdrive will be available in 2 GB and 4 GB capacities. Both are compatible to the Compact Flash+ Type II Standard...

The Sony 2 GB Microdrive (Model RHMD2G) is available now for a suggested retail price of $179, and the 4 GB Microdrive (Model RHMD4G) is available for a suggested retail price of $279.

*****************************************************

Do you think this model will work on Z?  Also does the improved data transfer rate entail greater power comsumption?
