sdxc memory card with 2tb capaity exfat

At the 2009 International CES the next-generation SD memory card — SDXC — specification was announced and yes the capacity is 2 TB, now thats what I call storage, I think we are going to see a lot of CD’s trashed out? SD interface read/write speeds will cross to 104 MB per second in this year, with a goal of 300 megabytes per second.

The SD Association plan to release the open standard in the first quarter of 2009. The SDXC currently utilizes Microsoft’s exFAT file system to support its huge capacity and compatibitlity with flash media. The SDXC are planned to be in the market this year.

If this technology is successfull, we are looking at very light laptops, handhelds etc. Happy storing.
