Toshiba recently launched two new hard drives that the company says have the largest amount of storage in their class.
The first is a 9.5 millimeter-thick, two-platter hard drive model MK7559GSXP with the maximum capacity of 750GB. The company says the model can fit into any laptop computer. The second drive, the MKxx59GSM, is a three-platter model with a 12.5-millimeter thick platform that holds 1 TB of memory.
The second model, however, can only fit in later editions of laptops that are designed to hold 2.5-inch hard drives.
The new drive uses next-generation storage capabilities with advanced sector format technologies and also has “silent seek” technology to make the models run quieter. The models also comes with technology that make the hard drive more efficient.
“This technology uses 4K byte-per-sector formatting and improved error-correcting code functions, hence providing maximum data integrity and making efficient use of the storage surface area,” writes CNET tech reviewer Dong Ngo. “Traditional hard drives use the legacy 512 byte-per-sector configuration, which leave gaps between sectors and therefore waste the storage space.”
