Innovation, higher capacity, and improved performance

Hitachi Family of Microdrives

Highlights

 Provides high-capacity, high-performance removable storage

ranging from 340 MB to 1 GB in a one-inch hard disk drive

 Integrates with a variety of hand-held devices through use of the

industry-standard CF+** Type II format and compatibility with PCMCIA Type II (with an adapter)

 Provides reliable storage for digital cameras, handheld PCs, digi-

tal audio players, laptops, and other portable handheld devices

 Incorporates leading-edge technologies such as giant

magnetoresistive (GMR) head technology, load/unload features,

Enhanced Adaptive Battery Life Extender* 3.0, and TrueTrack*

servo for maximum capacity, performance, and reliability

New applications for high-

capacity, compact storage

The Hitachi Microdrive provides break-

through storage capacity for portable

electronic devices in an industry-standard

CF+ Type II form factor. This capacity

enables users of digital cameras to cap-

ture more high-resolution photos without

having to frequently download data. In

addition, handheld PC users can access

more applications and maintain large

databases, while notebook users can

back up and transport their data more

quickly and conveniently.

Increased capacity, portability,

and value

With capacities ranging from 340 MB

to 1 GB on a single hard disk drive,

the Hitachi family of Microdrives provides

high- capacity, cost-effective personal

storage. Weighing only 16 grams, the

Hitachi Microdrive provides outstanding

capacity in a compact, portable pack-

age—a key requirement for today’s

handheld devices.

Higher performance, increased

productivity

With a maximum sustained data rate

exceeding 4 MB/sec, the Hitachi

Microdrive provides a significant perfor-

mance improvement over current flash

memory. As a result, large files can be

transferred very quickly, and users can be

much more productive.
