“In an industry first, our engineers have been able to boost
areal density to 1TB per platter in a 2.5-inch form factor,
allowing our OEM customers the flexibility to design and build
virtually any kind of laptop they can envision, with plenty of
storage to boot,” said Matt Rutledge, Seagate’s senior vice
president, client storage. “Laptops today must satisfy consumer
demand for fast computing and high capacity storage capabilities on
one hand, while also offering compelling designs and slim styling
on the other. With the introduction of Seagate’s new Mobile HDD,
laptop manufacturers no longer need to make tradeoffs between these
seemingly competing mandates.”
Weighing just 3.17 oz., the diminutive Mobile HDD is 25 percent
lighter than the previous generation of mobile hard drives. A
smaller 7mm drive frees up valuable space in a mobile device to
accommodate additional designed-in features, such as bigger
batteries, more memory and better air circulation.
“The drive’s high capacity, coupled with its ultra-slim,
lightweight footprint, empowers our engineers to create truly
ground-breaking, innovative system designs,” said JH Pan, director
of SYS BG business operation department, ASUS. “The new Seagate
Mobile HDD is a true game changer, enabling us to create
high-capacity, thin and light laptops consumers crave at
mass-market price points they can afford.”
Utilizing 1TB per disk, the Seagate Mobile HDD delivers the
highest capacity possible in a small 7mm form factor. Compatible
with most of today’s mobile computers, the drive’s standard SATA
6Gb/s interface provides for easy integration into existing laptop
designs and portable computer upgrades. With up to 2TB of space,
the Mobile HDD enables affordable high capacity storage, while
supporting over 200,000 photos, 250,000 songs or 124 hours of high
definition video. The drive is available in both 1TB and 2TB
capacities.
“Data growth continues to explode and as such more and more data
is being created and stored on mobile devices,” says Wentao Yang,
vice president, global procurement, Lenovo. “Seagate is addressing
this challenge head on by introducing the Mobile HDD, an innovative
new drive that provides our designers with the freedom to create
devices with high capacity in a form factor consumers demand—
making it a win win for both of us.”
