Seagate Savvio 10K.3 Hard Drive

Seagate is proud to lay claim to the record of being the highest capacity, small form factor 2.5″ enterprise hard drive in the world with the Savvio 10K.3 model. Apparently, this model consumes up to 70% less power and has over 60% performance density when compared to standard 3.5″ hard drives. The list of firsts doesn’t just stop there as the Savvio 10K.3 drive is also the industry’s first 2.5″ self-encrypting enterprise drive with government-grade Full Disk Encryption (FDE) data protection. It can hold up to 300GB of data, featuring a reliability rate of 1.6 million hours MTBF, and an advanced SAS 2.0 (6 Gb/sec data rate) interface. You can expect to see the Savvio 10K.3 hard drive popping up sometime in the second half of this year in notebooks.
