subject: 2.5 Hard Drive Is Mostly Used In All Net Book [print this page] HDD is a hard disk drive which is anon-volatile storagedevice that stores digitally encoded data on rapidly rotatingplatterswithmagnetic surfaces and is a part of the computer. Drive refers to the motorized mechanical aspect that is distinct from its medium, such as a tape drive and its tape, or a floppy disk drive and its floppy disk etc. Earlier HDDs had removable media; however, an HDD is typically a sealed unit with fixed media today.
The world's thinnest 2.5 Hard Drive for ultra-portable and entry-level laptops, high-end net books, backup devices and consumer electronics were introduced by the company named Seagate. It is wafer-thin 7mm in height - 25 percent slimmer than traditional 9.5mm 2.5-inch laptop hard drives - the Momentous Thin drive gives original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and system integrators significantly lower cost-per-gigabyte storage than solid state and 1.8-inch drives, enabling a new breed of entry-level thin laptops in the market.
All net book computers available today, 90 percent feature 9.5mm 2.5-inch laptop drives because solid state and 1.8-inch hard drives are largely cost-prohibitive. And the Momentus 2.5 Hard Drive thin drive provides affordable, thin storage for net books and slim laptops, enabling computer makers to offer systems that can reach the market broadly. 2.5 Hard Drive "The Momentus Thin drive promises to help computer makers differentiate on mobile-computing form factor and better compete in the fast-growing markets for thin laptops. This 2.5 Hard Drive Momentus Thin drive rivals traditional 2.5-inch laptop drives in performance and power-efficiency, enabling thin-chassis designs in all segments of notebook computing and allowing OEMs both to design in greater value on high-end net books for easier up selling and to create a wider value differentiation between commercial laptop PCs and consumers.
