New technology exceeds expectations

Travelstar™ 5K160, designed for demanding data-access applications, leverages Hitachi’s perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) to deliver superior technology and reliability. Hitachi employs speciﬁ c microcode to allow the Travelstar E5K160 to deliver 24 x 7 access to data. With capacities up to 160GB, industry-leading performance, low-power consumption and excellent shock resistance, the E5K160 can support the stringent demands of ”always-on” applications in lower transaction environments. The improved electronics design reduces the power consumption of this 5400 RPM drive to 10% below its industry-leading predecessor, and the E5K160 runs cooler than the competition. Hitachi has also implemented Thermal Flyheight Control (TFC) for improved error rates, and iridium-manganese-chromium (IrMnCr) read heads for improved reliability. This combination of attributes enables the Travelstar E5K160 to address the needs for rugged, reliable storage in non-stop environments.

DATA SHEET

Reliability leadership

With the transition to PMR technology, Travelstar E5K160 demonstrates reliability that parallels or exceeds conventional longitudinal technology.** Hitachi has successfully integrated second-generation PMR head and media technology with a new read channel and IrMnCr read heads by leveraging new materials, complex processes, tools and testing. This, combined with the proven storage technologies of award- winning Travelstar products, allows Hitachi to deliver high capacity hard drives suitable for around-the-clock applications in small space environments.
