I remember you made the prediction some time back that the $ for 16G will be under $50 in a yr and here we go, you got it right. At the same time, I was thinking other mass storage. USB HD is now $99 for 750G or $129 for 1TG which compared handsomely to the $ of 2 SD cards, 1 TG or 32G, almost the same $, HA. I know, one is portable, the other is luggable. To upgrade my current system, from 16G to 32G (2X8G to 2X16G) for $112 vs $129 for a TG USB HD. I need to do some thinking. Does the current drawn from the host goes up with the HD capacity, or, has anybody experience problems with a large capacity HD (500G or larger) on the NIT? If I am going to plug down a $100+ for upgrade, I am thinking a little bit for long term.

Oh well, too early in the morning, good to hear from you again, linux_author,


Edit: $ I quoted is something I came across in the last week or two. The cheapest I can find today is about $99 for 500G USB HD, roughly equal to $ for 2X16G SD and $170 shipped usb 1 TB, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822204068. I know, there is the g force, stability of SD vs physical HD so on so forth. Just a thought.
