Techtree News Staff, Nov 22, 2007 1813 hrs IST
The Hitachi Deskstar P7K500 is claimed to be 59 percent more power efficient than comparable (250GB) hard drives in its class.
Cyberstar Infocom has announced that it is all set to introduce Hitachi's most energy-efficient desktop hard disk drive (HDD), the Deskstar P7K500.
Designed for commercial- and consumer- PCs in capacities ranging from 250GB to 500GB, the Hitachi Deskstar P7K500 is claimed to be 59 percent more power efficient than comparable (250GB) hard drives in its class.
The reason being Hitachi has implemented a set of power-saving technologies to reduce P7K500's active- and idle- power consumption. As such, the P7K500 delivers significant power savings both- on its one-disk model and two-disk model.
The Deskstar P7K500, available in 250GB, 320GB, 400GB, and 500GB capacities, with 185 billion bits per square inch maximum areal density; comes with an 8MB (one-disk), and an 8MB and 16MB (two-disk) data buffer. Both models sport a 7200 rpm performance and a Serial ATA interface.
Besides, the Deskstar P7K500 features Hitachi's patented load/unload technology to allow for additional power reduction. And, it offers industry-leading power specifications that support Green initiatives aimed at producing environment-friendly PCs.
In addition, the P7K500 incorporates Hitachi's second generation perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) heads and disks that enable 250 GB per platter areal density, plus a high level of reliability.
Deskstar P7K500 is available across India through Cyberstar.
