I was just browsing by some Japanese etailer and discovered pictures of Toshiba’s MK6006GAH 60GB 1.8” HDD. In addition, I found it for sale from a few private sellers by some Japanese auction sites; and it’s going for around 30,000 yen.

A further search for the 1.8” 60GB HDD leads to an US etailer – Impact Computers and Electronics. It’s available for $259.95 . So, those of you considering a HDD upgrade - this is it!

Awww its so cute

Coool!!!

Hopefully someone down here in Oz will be selling them soon…

I need this drive asap!!!

Rich.

that looks like its been ripped out of an ipod photo…. why is there an apple logo on the bottom right corner?

I have two other Toshiba desktop HDD that also bears Apple’s logo. I think it’s just Toshiba’s way to state its product is compatible with Apple.

..anyway, so can anyone confirm that the hdd is compatible with the T series? oh and which is better? toshiba or hitachi 1.8” 60 Gb hdd?

they ship internationally for 20 bucks , BARGAIN! and its not that expensive really…anyone think i shouldnt upgrade the 40giga for the 60
? id like to here people’s opinions..

*my situation is, i want a 1.8 in an external enclosure for portable storage, so i figured upgrade the laptops 40 for a 60, cause 40 is a good size to have in your pocket and 60 on the laptop will give me a larger cushion for when im downloading stuff, before i transfer the file to my 3.5” external hdd*

yeah prob. i dont see any other reason why they would apple logo their drives anyway…and i dont think apple would pay the premium to get logo’d drives!

My HDD just started to go bad and I need a replacement (can’t perform full format, only quick & can’t perform check disk with surface scan in xp).
