Toshiba today unveiled an internal HD DVD drive for PCs. The SD-H903A is a SATA-connected unit compatible not only with single- and dual-layer HD DVD media but also all the major recordable and rewriteable DVD formats, CDs too. What the company didn't say was when the drive will go on sale - it's sampling later this month - or how much it will cost. ®
