Fujitsu Computer Products of America, a supplier of computer products including hard disk drives, peripherals and biometric security solutions, has announced as part of a coordinated global launch of the MHX2300BT series of mobile hard disk drives (HDDs).
The newest Fujitsu products feature impressive storage capacities of 250 GB and 300 GB, the first 2.5" PMR (perpendicular magnetic recording) hard disk drives in the industry to attain these high levels of capacity. The MHX2300BT series will begin shipping in the first quarter of 2007.
Engineered using perpendicular magnetic recording technology, which is essential to achieving the increased capacity per platter, the new small form factor HDDs will address the growing demand for higher capacity storage solutions.
Additional benefits of the Fujitsu second generation PMR products include best-in-class low power consumption at 1.6W as well as high shock tolerance and near-silent operation. These qualities make the MHX2300BT series apt for audio/video (A/V) applications such as gaming, video editing, audio recording and DVR functionality, as well as for the high-end personal computing market.
