Samsung Spinpoint N2: 160GB 1.8-Inch Hard Drive

Samsung Electronics recently announced a new hard drive model with 160 gigabyte of storage, the N2 1.8-inch HDD series.

The 160GB Spinpoint N2, having the largest capacity for a 1.8-inch form factor, spins at 4200rpm but also it looks hot, its like a credit-card-painted in glossy black with a flip-out USB connector.

“The 1.8inch HDD market will grow at a tremendous pace with annual sales expected to increase up to 65% by 2010 as consumers demand smaller, more compact technology devices.” ( Andrew Higginbotham, director of hard drive sales and marketing, Samsung Semiconductor Inc)

The 1.8-inch hard drives are mostly used in mobile consumer devices, as well as in ultraportable notebooks and ultra-mobile PCs (UMPCs).

Currently, there is no information on availability date and pricing of the 160GB Spinpoint N2.
