| | Microdrive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | From 1999 to 2003 they were commonly known as IBM Microdrives, and from 2003 onward as Hitachi Microdrives. | | | In December 2002 Hitachi bought IBM's disk drive business, including the Microdrive technology and brand. | | | Furthermore they have some benefits over flash memory in terms of the way data is stored and manipulated. |

| | Hitachi Global Storage said that it planned to produce a Microdrive with 4 gigabytes of storage. | | | Hitachi engineers estimate that the new Microdrive's data transfer rates are faster than all competitive solid-state data storage products available today. | | | Microdrive also features a high-performance 97.9 Mbps data transfer rate to accommodate rapid shooting and moving picture data. |

| | eWEEK: Hitachi Microdrive Feels Heat from Flash |
| | IBM later transferred the Microdrive to Hitachi as part of a merger of assets that will see IBM essentially exit the disk storage business over the next three years. | | | In addition, the Microdrive requires the use of a FAT32-compliant camera; there are about 13 cameras already on the market that use the FAT32 file system, according to the enthusiast journal Digital Photography Review. | | | When the 1GB Microdrive was introduced in late 2000, its creator, IBM, said that the drive would offer far more storage than the competing flash cards of the time. |

| | The technique of the Microdrive is based on high capacity storage. | | | The taking-over has lead to the situation that Hitachi Global Storage Technologies, HGST, has taken on Microdrive as well as the high quality server storage equipment in its assortment. | | | As soon as the prices of the Flash memory reaches the price of the Microdrives, Hitachi will pay less attention to both storage media and will concentrate on new possibilities of applications and higher storage capacity. |

| | studio2f: Size matters |
| | When we consider that Hitachi probably has a monopolistic share of the CF card market in storage devices over 2.5GB, this could be the starting point for a good class action. | | | The reason for this is that many OEMs using Hitachi 4GB drives in their products are doing so with proprietary firmware written to their specialized OEM hardware implementation. | | | Since the drives are physically the same and have the same part number, it seems clear the only difference must be in the software configuration and therefore, reversible. |

| | Aximsite - Beware: Hitachi 4GB Microdrive & X50v |
| | My conclusion is: Before you buy Hitachi 4gb CF card, you have to goto Hitachi Microdrive support website to find out whether you have the driver which is support your PDA processor. | | | For those who have latest technology in their hands that comes with Intel PXA270 family processor, we have to wait for Hitachi to develop a new driver to support this processor type. | | | I also worked with Dell and Hitachi tech support to solve the problem but it is still unsolved. |
