The Travelstar E7K100 expands Hitachi's second generation 7200 RPM 2.5-inch hard drive series with further design enhancements for data intensive applications requiring round-the-clock operation. The E7K100 provides leading-edge capacity, performance, durability and power utilization on a proven platform for quality and reliability. With 100 GB capacity, the E7K100 offers 66% more storage space as well as a 33% boost in sustained data rate over the record-setting Travelstar E7K60. Optimizations in the femto-based actuator/suspension enable the E7K100 to endure 300Gs of operating shock, 1,000Gs of non-operating shock and 600,000 load/unload cycles, contributing to the Travelstar E7K100's highly durable and rugged design. This combination of capacity, performance and shock tolerance enables the E7K100 to satisfy the demands for rugged, reliable storage in non-stop environments.
