Seagate Mobile Hard Drives

Seagate Momentus 7200.2 Key Advantages -- G-Force Protection. Seagate freefall sensor technology protects data by returning drive to a nonoperating state in the event of a drop. Highest available laptop performance SATA 3Gb/s interface increases system performance. Low power consumption maximizes battery life and lets users work longer. Perpendicular recording technology enhances data reliability.

Seagate is developing hybrid drive technology asa new method to deliver intrinsic HDD benefits,including higher performance, faster boot-uptime, more robustness and higher reliability.These benefits will first be realized in drives fornotebook computers, but future applicationscould extend across the range of markets servedby disc drive products. The Momentus 5400 PSDhybrid drive incorporates nonvolatile memoryinto the HDD. The drive pins the most commonlyused hard drive data onto the nonvolatile cache,reducing access time. Hybrid drives offer manyof the benefits of solid-state disc drives but at afraction of the cost. Hybrid drives require no enduserintervention, since Microsoft Windows Vistaautomatically detects and manages the hybridtechnology in the system.
