Expanding the CinemaStar family

CinemaStar™ C5K320 is the newest Hitachi 5400 RPM, 2.5-inch consumer electronics hard drive with capacities from 120GB to 320GB. The 160GB/platter oneand two-disk models have been customized to support digital video and surveillance applications. In addition to improved Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR) head technology and other reliability-fo- cused enhancements, Hitachi SmoothStream technology supports the ATA-7 streaming command set, and SCT provides time-limited error recovery and thermal monitoring capabilities. CinemaStar C5K320 is offered with silent-seek acoustics for ultra-quiet operation. Hitachi continues to provide low-power leadership and cool-running operation to make the C5K320 an ideal choice for surveillance systems and home DVR applications. This third generation compact CinemaStar drive expands the Hitachi product lineup to provide manufacturers with more energy-efficient options for next-generation slim video systems.

Reliability leadership

Hitachi has enhanced TFC for improved error rates and tunneling magneto-resistive (TMR) read heads for enhanced data reliability on the CinemaStar C5K320. Hitachi offers customers system design and integration services including, but not limited to hard drive selection, optimization, software compatibility assessment, performance profiling and problem analysis and reliability consultation. Team Hitachi is ready to help you deliver a successful video device. The Hitachi CinemaStar product line is optimized for video applications for any size system.
