Toshiba Offers 500 GB Drives For Netbook Users

Toshiba just launched a new set of 2.5″, 7200 rpm hard disk drives, and it looks like they'll be seen in everything from netbooks to desktops. The largest capacity drive is half a terabyte.

A high-volume drive may appeal to some netbook users attempting to use their machines for more than casual use. OEMs have already shown interest in the drives, according to industry sources.
