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 bandwidth of a station wagon filled with storage has always been excellent; it's the latency that's a bitch.

    But at least with IPoAC you can get food delivered with your data, if you're handy with a shotgun.

    We've had plenty of order-of-magnitude improvements made to computers already.
    Why can't we just make the station wagon faster?
    Duhhhh!
