More storage, same compact size
Hitachi announces the Microdrive 3K6, a 3600
rpm, 1.0-inch hard disk drive designed to meet
the needs of high-capacity, ultra-portable
electronic devices. With a maximum capacity
of 6GB, the drive holds 50 percent more than
its predecessor — more photos, more music,
more data — in the same compact size. The
new Microdrive 3K6 delivers a higher data rate
for improved performance and is available in
an embedded version or as removable storage.
Optimized embedded design
The embedded Microdrive 3K6, configured with a True IDE interface, offers Ultra DMA high
speed mode. This compact, high-capacity Microdrive is a cost-effective, high-performance
solution for handheld consumer electronics applications.
Leadership technology forminiaturization
Still no bigger than a matchbook and weighing less than a roll of film, the 6GB, singledisk
Microdrive 3K6 leverages Hitachi leading-edge technologies including femto slider
technology that enables higher capacities, as well as giant magneto-resistive (GMR) head
technology, load/unload features, and True Track™ servo for maximum performance and
reliability. If size matters — in both capacity and footprint — then Microdrive 3K6 is the ideal
storage device.
