Our computers will be the size of a cell phone in the future...

o.0 Those things have more space on them then my hard drive. 1tb on an SD card ffs.

Which begs the question Why do computers still use large hdd when space and resources could be saved?

that makes me think of this

Its jsut a SD card with a different file system silly man :D

2tb is jsut the max this file system allows.

I see. At any rate a 32gb sdhc card is still pretty big in space.

Lol wat

SD cards use FAT,. This limits size to I believe 32gb

These new SDXC cards use a different file system that allows up to 2tb. Doesn't mean they're bigger, they just CAN be bigger.
