サムスン、モバイルやiPod向けの1.8インチ120GB HDDを発表

「世界最～」が大好きなサムスンが、今度はストレージで世界最大容量となるHDD 3シリーズを発表しています。2.5インチ / 厚さ9.5mm、5400rpmのSpinpoint M4は最大容量250GB。プラッタあたり160GB。おなじく2.5インチのSpinpoint MP100は7200rpmで世界最大となる200GBまで。

ノートやUMPC、iPodなどに使われる1.8インチでは、最大容量120GBのSpinpoint N2が発表されました。こちらは4200rpmまたは3600rpm、モバイル用途向けらしく読み込み0.8w / 待機0.07wの低消費電力。量産は7月から。

SSDやフラッシュメモリとHDDのハイブリッドHHDにも力を入れるサムスンですが、リンク先watchの国内発表記事によれば、「SSDのGB単価が徐々に1.8インチHDDに追いつき、2010年にはかなり接近するが、それ以上にHDDの単価も下がり、共存していくだろう」。こちらのギガ単価予測では2007年に$1.4 / GB (1.8" HDD) 対 $7.5 / GB (フラッシュ)なのが2008年には1: 5、2009年には0.8 : 3.8、2010年には0.6 : 1.9。フラッシュも2年で半額程度に下落するもののHDDも緩やかに落ち続けるという予測のようです。
