Seagate unveiled the industry’s first 1.5-terabyte desktop and half-terabyte notebook hard drives to meet explosive worldwide demand for digital-content storage in home and business environments. <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Seagate Barracuda HDDThe debut of the Barracuda® 7200.11 1.5TB hard drive<\/strong>, the eleventh generation of Seagate’s flagship drive for desktop PCs, marks the single largest capacity hard drive jump in the more than half-century history of hard drives – a half-terabyte increase from the previous highest capacity of 1TB, thanks to the capacity-boosting power of perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) technology.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Barracuda 7200.11 hard drive combines proven PMR technology, components and expert manufacturing to provide 1.5TB of reliable storage for mainstream desktop computers, workstations, desktop RAID, gaming and high-end PCs, and USB\/FireWire\/eSATA external storage.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Seagate’s new 2.5-inch half-terabyte 5400- and 7200-rpm drives – Momentus® 5400.6<\/strong> and Momentus 7200.4<\/strong> – deliver the best combination of capacity, mobility and durability for mainstream and high-performance notebook computers, external storage solutions, PCs and industrial applications requiring small form factor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Highlighting the global growth of digital content, Seagate expects to ship its two billionth hard drive <\/strong>within the next five years. Earlier this year Seagate shipped its one billionth hard drive since the company’s inception nearly 30 years ago.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Momentus 5400.6 and Momentus 7200.4 hard drives are the fourth generation of Seagate’s laptop family to use PMR. The Momentus 5400.6, a 5400-rpm drive, combines a powerful Serial ATA 3Gb\/second interface and capacities ranging from 120GB to 500GB with an 8MB cache.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Momentus 7200.4 hard drive, with its 7200-rpm spin speed and a Serial ATA 3GB\/second interface, delivers true desktop performance. The power-efficient 7200-rpm drive maximizes battery life and comes in capacities ranging from 250GB to 500GB with a 16MB cache.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

All Momentus and Barracuda drives are backed by Seagate’s leading five-year warranty<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Availability<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Shipments of the Barracuda 7200.11 1.5TB are set to begin August 2008<\/strong>. Momentus 5400.6 and 7200.4 hard drives are to begin shipping in Q4 calendar 2008.<\/p>\n
