Fujitsu to solve notebook storage woes
May 15, 07 09:44 PM PDT
Carrying around an external hard drive might be the most common and convenient solution you employ when it comes to expanding storage space on your notebook, but Fujitsu thought otherwise by developing a new hard drive that manages to cram in 250GB of storage space into a tiny 2.5" drive. This is made possible thanks to the perpendicular writing technology that's found on Seagate's 750GB hard drive. Known as the MHY2250BH series, these new hard drives will be available at retail stores this Q2. The storage space comes at a sacrifice of speed, as it spins at 5400 rpm. Thankfully, that also helps keep the noise levels down to a mere 24 decibels. More specifications are available after the jump.
• Rotational Speed: 5400RPM
• Interface: SATA 1.5Gb/sec (Rev 2.5)
• Buffer to Host Transfer Rate: 150MB/sec max.
• Read/Write Seek Time: 12/14ms typ.
• Track to Track Seek Time: 1.5ms typ.
• Idle Power Consumption: 0.6W typ. (Best in Class)
• Standby/Sleep Power Consumption: 0.13W typ. (Best in Class)
• Acoustic (Idle): 2.4 bels typ.
• Operating Shock: 325G (2ms)
