160 GB 1.8″ Drives from Toshiba

Hot on the heals of the 160 GB iPod Classic announcement Toshiba announced a new 1.8-inch hard drive for us with consumer devices like MP3 players. The so wonderfully named MK1626GCB is the highest density 1.8-inch drive on the market right now.

Instead of buying a new 160GB iPod Classic, maybe buying one of these puppies and putting it into my current 80GB iPod video would work out just fine, and save me some bucks if I want to increase the storage space on my iPod.

I smell a homebrew hack in the makings.
