That pump is a great product for a specific niche: Super silent notebooks.

First it need to be part of a complete system assembled in a carefully controlled environment to avoid contamination of the coolant.

We still have very little info on the specs, like how much power is needed to reach that 200cc mark.

We also dont know the head capability of this pump, but I'm prety sure that it behaves completely different than the pumps we know. This is an absolute guess on my own, but I believe that it have an incredible amount of pressure. Just think what happens when power is not applied in the pump: A centrifugal pump makes almost no force against backflow, but how much water can be pushed across a 2mm glass?

The potentials of this are amazing: stacking several discs in parallel can make a decent flow, and if the pressure is like I think it can make some truly incredible speed microjets.
