“We are pleased that Acer is delivering cutting-edge mobile computers with 500GB notebook hard drives from Seagate, with more personal computer makers to follow,” said BanSeng Teh, vice president and managing director, Seagate Asia Pacific. “Seagate continues to advance hard drive capacity, speed and durability, and our latest 500GB 2.5-inch drives and 1.5 Terabyte 3.5-inch drives provide the highest capacities on the planet to meet the growing need to create, store, share and protect digital content.”
To help protect data, the hard drive is built to withstand up to 1,000 Gs of non-operating shock and 350 Gs of operating shock, making it ideal for systems that are subject to rough handling or high levels of vibration. For extra durability in mobile environments, Momentus 5400.6 hard drives are offered with G-Force Protection, a free-fall sensor technology that helps prevent drive damage and data loss upon impact if a notebook PC is dropped. The sensor works by detecting any changes in acceleration equal to the force of gravity, then parking the head off the disk to prevent contact with the platter in a free fall of as little as 8 inches.
The drive, the fourth generation of Seagate's notebook family to use capacity-boosting Perpendicular Magnetic Recording technology, combines a powerful Serial ATA 3GB/second interface and capacities of 500GB, 320GB, 250GB, 160GB and 120GB with 8MB of cache.
