Toshiba’s 120GB and 240GB 1.8-Inch Drives Appear (Just After iPod Announcement)

By Wilson Rothman on September 10, 2008 at 8:04 AM

Today, right after Steve J. rolled out a “thin” 120GB iPod classic, Toshiba announced its 120GB 4200rpm 1.8″ drive, a new high for that slimmer single-platter config. Everybody knows that’s the drive for classic iPods. But Toshiba also showed off a fatter 240GB that would fit snugly in the spot where that 160GB drive fits in today’s classics. So, tell us, Toshiba or Apple, where’s the damn 240GB classic? What good is the classic line if it isn’t the most storage you can get? [Press Release]

    Absolutely! I’ve been nervously waiting for this 240 gig release. And Nada. Apple, we need and demand a 240 gig ipod!! Hopefully, they will eventually release it. But I doubt it, cause it’s not super thin. On the upside, those 160 gigs are floating around, and there’s a company that sells a drop in 240 gig hard drive for my 5th gen ipod.
