Seagate Launches First-Ever 160GB Perpendicular Hard Drive

By

The Seagate 160GB Portable Hard Drive is the industry’s first portable drive built with perpendicular recording, an innovative technology that Seagate has employed to deliver the market’s highest capacity in a 2.5-inch form factor. The new portable hard drive provides 30% more capacity than comparably sized drives.

At the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show, Seagate Technology is introducing innovative consumer products that add exciting benefits and functionality to already proven Seagate consumer product lines. The Seagate Portable Hard Drive will boost storage capacity to 160GB, which is 30% over the current standard while maintaining the same compact footprint. For data-intensive applications such as video editing or massive data transfers, the Seagate Pushbutton Backup Hard Drive now backs up and transfers data five times faster than existing storage devices, by taking 3Gb/s Serial ATA out of the box.
