Product Description

The Seagate® LD25.2 Series drive is the ideal
combination of capacity and size for leading­edge game consoles, low-profile DVRs, and

cost burden of drives designed for notebook
PCs or other mobile applications

desktop drives for less than the cost of
notebook drives

Advantages of Perpendicular Recording

After more than ten years of pioneering research
at Seagate, perpendicular recording is now a
proven technology. It increases capacity and
dependability by storing data vertically, rather
than horizontally. And vertically stored data bits
mean increased data density—which means
higher performance to increase productivity.
All LD25.2 Series drives come standard with
perpendicular recording, enabling a more
dependable drive.
