Toshiba Presents The Ultimate Hard Drive
Friday, January 28, 2011
Toshiba today announced three new 1.8-inch hard drives. These are the industry’s first 1.8” drives with low-insertion force (LIF) SATA (Serial ATA) connectors, enabling a 10% smaller footprint compared to standard 1.8” drives using microSATA connectors.
These hard drives are developed for use in multiple devices, including tablets, consumer electronics devices and external HDDs, the new MKxx39GSL series offers three models, at 160GB (MK1639GSL), 200GB (MK2039GSL) and 220GB (MK2239GSL) capacities.
Features include 4200RPM spindle rate, 16MB buffer and 15ms average seek time.
The drives are capable of withstanding the demands of mobility usage, tolerating up to 1,500Gs of non-operational shock and 600Gs of operational shock, compared to 900G of non-operational shock and 400G of operational shock for the most robust 2.5-inch HDDs currently available.
What actually make this hard drive special is low power consumption, quiet operation and only 0.35-watts required to operate. It comes with 5- x 54- x 71mm size. Its official release date is February and the price is yet to be announced.
