Hitachi Travelstar 5K250 Quarter Terabyte Notebook Hard Drive

Hungry for more storage on your laptop, but want to save the battery too? Hitachi unveiled its new, quarter-terabyte behemoth, the Travelstar 5K250 hard drive running at 5400RPM, apparently providing the best power-efficiency of any 250GB drive in its class.

The 2.5" Travelstar drive is ideal for not only notebook PCs but gaming consoles and other mobile devices. With 400G shock protection and Bulk Data Encryption, it also secures the data stored on the drive.

The 5K250 uses perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) technology, and allows for fast creation/access to multimedia files without compromising on the battery.

Specs in the extended entry.
