Is there a video somewhere of the one inch microdrive with acrylic display shown in the article?
Tempest1981•46m ago
Cool!

I found the old drive that worked with my Canon camera. It's a Hitachi 2GB Microdrive from 2003. It says CF+ Type-II. So larger, with a CompactFlash interface, boring in comparison.

More history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microdrive

I'm trying to remember the camera... Canon Powershot S1 IS maybe? It used a lot more battery running the microdrive.

Damn, now I want one just to de-lid it and put it on a shelf. Looks like eBay has plenty of these.
