Re:SanDisk SD memory card 'largest ever' by josu on Friday September 12, 2014 @11:21AM (#8308490)
Actually, if my math is correct the ratio of storage to size of a 128GB Micro SD is still greater.

In two dimensions, for simplicity's sake, since a micro SD is obviously slimmer than a regular SD:

512GB SD = 768mm^2

128GB Micro SD = 165mm^2

SD = 0.667 GB/mm^2

Micro SD = 0.776 GB/mm^2

If we add the third dimension the efficiency of a Micro SD will be even greater compared to a SD.
