Four Pocket-Sized Hard Drives

Hard drive form factors have really come down in size

Back in the '80s, a personal computer's hard drive had a 5.25-inch form-factor that was roughly twice the height of today's optical drives, was heavy enough to be awkward to hold in one hand, and, at the high end, could handle as much as 100MB (if you could afford it). These days, though, small is in.

Information week has a really great review of 4 pocket-sized drives that gives a lot of insight and explanation of these tiny pocket pals.
