Share it on Facebook Share it on Twitter Share it on WhatsApp Share it on reddit

Toshiba Corporation ha lanciato il primo disco rigido, o HHD, da 1.8-inch in architettura dual-platter capace di vantare una capacità di memorizzazione pari a 240GB ed una densità superificiale di ben 531.9Mbit/mm2.

Il nuovo hard drive è siglato MK2431GA, ha una velocità di rotazione di 4.200RPM ed è concepito per l'equipaggiamento delle device mobile di piccole e medie dimensioni, come i player multimediali, le telecamere, i netbook e i notebook.

Nell'ambito dello stesso comunicato stampa in cui è stato annunciato il drive MK2431GA, Toshiba ha presentato anche altri due dischi da 1.8-inch. Si tratta delle varianti da 120GB e 80GB siglate rispettivamente MK1231GAL e MK8031GAL, con le quali Toshiba completa e rafforza la propria offerta in questo segmento del mercato.

I drive da 240GB e 80GB saranno prodotti sul larga scala a partire dalla fine del mese, mentre la soluzione da 120GB è già in produzione.



TOKYO --(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Toshiba Corporation, the pioneer in small form factor hard disk drives (HDDs), today announced the world's first dual-platter 240GB1) HDD (MK2431GAH). The new drive delivers the highest capacity1) and areal density in the 1.8-inch drive category for integration into portable media players, camcorders and mobile PCs. Toshiba also announced new 120GB (MK1231GAL) and 80GB (MK8031GAL) capacity offerings, rounding out the most complete line of high-capacity 4,200 RPM 1.8-inch HDDs for consumer electronics (CE) and mobile PC system manufacturers.

The new 240GB drive and 80GB drive will enter mass production at the end of September, and the 120GB is now in mass production.

Toshiba's 240GB MK2431GAH and 120GB MK1231GAL achieve an areal density of 344 gigabits per square inch (531.9Mbit/mm2), the industry's highest areal density1) in the 1.8-inch form factor, using perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) technology, which Toshiba introduced and commercialized in 2005. Toshiba's technology leadership in PMR has enabled the company to consistently deliver leading-edge capacities in the 1.8-inch form factor to support growing demand for miniaturization without sacrificing capacity for digital video, photo, audio and computing applications.

The new 1.8-inch HDD series uses a new mechanical and firmware design for enhanced durability, making the 80GB and 120GB single-platter HDDs well suited for slim-line mobile gadgets and PC applications. The new dual-platter 240GB MK2431GAH product is especially suitable for high-end digital video camcorders as well as light-weight mobile PC applications which require high capacity and high shock resistance to protect the users' valuable digital assets.

The new design elements incorporated in the MK2431GAH optimize power efficiency to new levels with a 33 percent overall reduction in energy consumption efficiency2) over Toshiba's previous-generation model of MK1626GCB (160GB 3,600 RPM) 1.8-inch HDDs.

Toshiba Group, a Corporate Citizen of the Planet Earth, is committed to realizing a better environment. Guided by "Toshiba Group Environmental Vision 2050" the Group is implementing measures to boost environmental efficiency by 10 times in FY2050, against the benchmark of FY2000. The core target is to reduce projected CO2 emissions by a total equivalent to 117.7 million tons a year by FY2025, through the development and sales of highly efficient power supply equipment and systems, and the manufacture of environmentally conscious home appliances and office equipment. By working to mitigate global warming, make efficient use of resources and control management of chemicals, Toshiba Group creates value for people and promotes lifestyles in harmony with the Earth.

Key Features of New Products

1. Achieving areal density of 531.9Mbit/mm2 (344Gbspi).

MK2431GAH and MK1231GAL achieve an areal density of 531.9Mbit/mm2, the result of improving the read-write head and of an enhanced magnetic layer. With the same two platter 1.8-inch design as Toshiba's current 160GB product, MK2431GAH offers a 240GB capacity, the highest yet achieved.

2. Improved energy consumption efficiency2).
