Hitachi has announced the availability of the Travelstar 5K320 2.5-inch notebook hard drives, featuring 320GB of storage capacity, a rotational speed of 5,400rpm, and the Serial ATA 2 3Gb/s interface.
“The Travelstar 5K320 elevates the standard for hard drive reliability with design enhancements that include altitude-sensing Thermal Fly-height Control (TFC), an improved actuator latch and fourth generation perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) head technology. These features combine to safeguard user data that might otherwise be compromised as a result of accidental falls, bumps and rough handling. The drives also include TrueTrack technology, which improves tracking accuracy in high shock or vibration environments,” the company’s press release says.
In addition the 5K320 features optional Bulk Data Encryption (BDE) for hard-drive-level data security.
The new energy efficient drives consume 0.55W of power on idle and 1.8W when reading and writing.
The same product is also available in 250GB, 160GB, 120GB, and 80GB capacities.
