Product Code: R97-2562Description Demand for small form factor Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) is expected to remain strong over the next five years. Personal Video Recorders (PVRs) will continue to represent the largest CE application for HDDs. In addition, the introduction of Apple’s video-capable iPod, and other competing portable video devices, will revitalize demand for 1.8-inch HDDs. Manufacturers will continue to look for applications for the 1-inch HDD segment, but increasing Flash capacities will seriously threaten demand for this form factor.
