The Hitachi Travelstar™ E7K100 series delivers a winning combination of characteristics. With high-performance, low power consumption and minimal heat emission, this second generation 7200 rpm drive is the ideal choice for more demanding data-access applications. The Travelstar E7K100, at 100GB, is the highest capacity 2.5" 7200 rpm drive. With native Serial ATA interface, the E7K100 brings the advantages of 300G of operating shock, 1000G of non-operating shock, and proven technology of Hitachi’s Travelstar 2.5" product line.

The Travelstar E7K100 series offers high performance, and enhanced availability to allow users the fullest range of choices to suit each application need.

Advanced technology for demanding applications

Hitachi Travelstar E7K100 series is designed specifically for environments that require a high storage capacity in a small space with low power and minimal heat characteristics, while delivering excellent performance and reliability. The E7K100 design utilizes proven storage technologies of Hitachi’s award winning Travelstar line of products, such as TrueTrack Servo, Drive Fitness Test (DFT), and Self-Monitoring Analysis and Recording Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) to deliver performance and reliability in around-the-clock environments.
