Hitachi Deskstar 7K500 Hard Drive Review
|
Posted on Wednesday, August 31 2005 @ 15:16:03 CEST by LSDsmurf |
Hitachi hasn't been very subtle in the method that it's used to achieve
the landmark figure but instead has ganged up five platters and ten heads
to achieve the 500GB, which tells us that each platter has a 100GB
capacity. That's a surprisingly low areal density when you consider that
Samsung's new SP2504C gets its 250GB capacity from a two platter/four
head design. Hitachi has form in this respect as it released the five-
platter 75GXP back in the days when it sold hard drives under the IBM
brand and more recently it also used five platters in the 400GB 7K400.
