| Your Entire CD Collection In Your Pants Pocket Removing the top cover of the case reveals Hitachi's tried-and-true technology, in the shape of a 4 GB Microdrive. In Archos' case, the HMS360404D5CF00 model is used. It has a 1" platter spinning at 3600 RPM. The Hitachi drives' temporary memory storage, at 128 kB, is a far cry away from current 2.5" notebook hard drives, which sport caches of up to 16 MB. http://www.tomshardware.com/mobile/20050505/index.html

| I'm 7min from my current workplace now so those CD are less frequently used, in new car I'll have MP3 player, so that'll cut down on quantity of media also

| Good MP3 quality is 160-192kbps, which means 4min is ~8mb filesize. ~7 CD's
