Industry-leading capacity, performance, and acoustics
IBM Travelstar 48GH, 30GN, and 15GN
2.5-inch hard disk drives
Highlights
The newest members of the IBM Travelstar family of hard disk drives are the first in the industry to implement Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor technology for industry-leading idle and operating acoustic performance. In addition, these new Travelstar models support the fast Ultra DMA mode-5 interface for transfer rates of up to100 MB/sec.
The IBM Travelstar 48GH— representing the third generation of 5400 RPM models in the indus­try—is the highest capacity and the highest performance mobile drive in the industry with a capacity of 48 GB and a maxi­mum media data transfer rate of 241 Mbits/sec for unsurpassed capacity and performance.
The IBM Travelstar 30GN and 15GN hard drives provide areal densities up to 25.7 Gbits/sq. in., yielding up to 15 GB of capacity per disk, combined with an industry-leading operational shock rating of 180 G/2 ms, which makes these drives well suited for today’s most demanding users.
Leading-edge technology
IBM continues its tradition of mobile storage leadership with the IBM Travelstar* 48GH, 30GN, and 15GN hard drives. The Travelstar 48GH—representing the third­generation family of 5400 RPM mobile drives—is the industry’s first 48 GB notebook hard disk drive employing four disks in a 12.5 mm high design.
The innovative hard drive design combines Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) motor technology, an ATA-100 interface, IBM giant magnetoresistive (GMR) head technology, Partial Response Maximum Likelihood (PRML) digital channel, a head load/unload feature, and Enhanced Adaptive Battery Life Extender* (ABLE)
3.0. This design provides the exceptional quietness, storage capacity, perfor­mance, power management, quality, and reliability required by today’s notebook systems.
As a result, the new IBM Travelstar drives are well suited for demanding, high-capacity Internet, digital audio, video streaming, and real-time multime­dia applications—whether users are in the office or on the road.
Performance and reliability
The IBM Travelstar 48GH, 30GN, and 15GN hard drives use established IBM technology such as TrueTrack Servo, IBM
Drive Fitness Test* (DFT), Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART), as well as a thermistor, an adaptive control device that helps maintain high performance and fast seek times at high environmental temperatures.
Advanced mobile systems
With these new drives, IBM has redefined state-of-the-art storage for mobile computing. The reduced acoustics, high speeds and capacities of IBM Travelstar drives support superior digital content creation capabilities, higher quality digital audio and video, and significantly faster processing for data-intensive multimedia and Internet applications.
By using one of the new Travelstar drives in a laptop system, you can unchain your multimedia studio from the desktop, enabling high-end multimedia creativity as mobile as your imagination.
IBM quality, support, and service
The new IBM Travelstar mobile hard drives share common components to provide users and manufacturers with superior-quality hard drives backed by a three-year warranty and IBM technical support and services.
