Improvement in the user experience of
mobile applications is the principal benefit that Toshiba
believes is possible by using its latest half-terabit small form
factor hard disk drives (HDDs).
The flagship model in a series of Serial-ATA (SATA) 2.5-inch
products, and available in capacities from 500 GB to 120 GB, the
drives will see use in notebook PCs, sub-notebooks, small form
factor and energy star PCs, game consoles,
external storage devices and consumer electronics products.
The drives have been produced using what are claimed to be
advanced servo techniques combined with mechanical design changes
aimed at minimising noise emanating from the drives.
To boost
green computing credentials, but perhaps most importantly
prolong battery life whilst on the road, power consumption during
data seek and read/write operation has been reduced by significant
amounts compared with that on Toshiba’s current products.
The new drive series will begin shipping in production volumes
to OEMs and distributors in December 2008 and will be unveiled to
the public in January 2009.
