SanDisk Corporation has released the new 128GB SanDisk Ultra microSDXC UHS-I memory card. Smaller than the size of a fingernail, the new microSDXC card enables consumers to use their phones and tablets to capture thousands of songs and photos, and hours of video on a single, removable card. To enable 128GB of storage on a removable microSD card, SanDisk developed a technique that allows for 16 memory die to be vertically stacked, each shaved to be thinner than a strand of hair.

†”With 128GB of removable storage, consumers will enjoy the freedom to capture and save whatever they want on a smartphone or tablet, without worrying about running out of storage space,” says Susan Park, director, retail product marketing, SanDisk.
