CNet:

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.

    Just because YOU personally can't find a use for it, doesn't mean no one else can. Maybe I want to record some pr0n in 4K. Maybe I'm doing a nude photoshoot and want some high quality raws. Maybe 128GB is good enough for you, but it's definitely not good enough for everyone. The world does not revolve around you.

    640K ought to be enough for anybody.

      Especially if you're talking nudes of SN posters. In fact I think 64K is probably excessive.
