Toshiba today announced a 640GB 2.5-inch hard drive. The two-platter drive has a height of 9.5mm which means it will work in notebooks. Specifications include a 5400RPM speed and an 8MB cache. The drive will also be available in 160GB, 250GB, 320GB, and 500GB versions, and will go on sale in the fourth quarter of this year.
