Hitachi Cuts Power Use for World's Most Energy-Efficient Desktop Hard Drive
7200 RPM Performance and 250G-Per-Platter Capacity Ideal for Power-Friendly PCs
SAN JOSE, Calif. – Oct. 22, 2007 – Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (Hitachi GST) is today delivering the world’s most energy efficient desktop hard disk drive (HDD) – the Deskstar™ P7K500. Hitachi GST has implemented a set of power-saving technologies to reduce the P7K500’s active and idle power consumption by up to 40 percent over the previous generation. As a result, the P7K500 achieves best-of-breed power consumption on its one-disk model and significant power savings on its two-disk model, both with 7200 RPM performance and Serial-ATA interface. Hitachi GST’s new hard drive is designed for commercial and consumer PCs in capacities ranging from 250GB to 500GB*. The P7K500 is up to 59 percent more power efficient than comparable 250GB hard drives in its class, based on available specifications.
