from a site selling them:With a PC Card adapter, part of the optional Travel Kit, the Microdrive can be used anywhere PCMCIA Type II ATA Flash is used. Furthermore, the Microdrive's blistering media transfer rate of up to 4.2 MB/sec. and 3600 RPM rotational speed provide significant performance advantages over ATA Flash at a considerably lower cost per Megabyte. Microdrive incorporates IBM/Hitachi's industry leading technologies including: giant magnetoresistive head (GMR), load/unload, Enhanced Adaptive Batter Life Extender� 3.0, and TrueTrack� servo for maximum capacity, performance, and reliability.
