SanDisk is letting you put 1TB of data on a card the size of a fingernail.
The company's massive-but-minute Extreme microSD UHS-I Card is now available for $450, months after its reveal at Mobile World Congress.
The product page, reported earlier by Tom's Guide, notes read speeds up to 90MB/s and write speeds up to 60MB/s, which is a little slower than the world's fastest flash memory option that SanDisk promised at MWC.
Now you can lose even more data in the washing machine or in the detritus in the bottom of your attache.

The uses for storage are so wide that I literally don't understand the point you're making when you say "But why?"
The list of reasons that crop up immediately in my head is too long to bother typing out.

That doesn't sound like much. You sure you counted them all?

It is an interesting information theory paradox, that something which is 80% H2O just doesn't compress well.
