Looking for the smallest in physical size and not compact flash drives. The
matchbox sounds like the one I may be looking for.

Thanks
Smallest in size, or in capacity? My first hard drive was a Shugart 5 meg
drive, MFM encoding. Was there ever a smaller hard drive by capacity for
the 'PeeCee' or otherwise? 5 megs was a LOT of space at the time.
Physically smallest, wasn't there a drive called the 'matchbox' drive?
Smallest I've owned was a little PCMCIA hard drive, which isn't as small
as the 'matchbox' drive.
