It's a fact: in the world of storage capacity, bigger is better. But when it comes to portability, small and light is the way to go. Hitachi's Microdrive 3K4 digital media marries its go-anywhere size to 2 GB's of record-it-all storage. No bigger than a matchbook and just as light, the Microdrive will fit 75 hours of high-quality music into the change pocket of your jeans. Or swap out all those songs for a DVD movie. At 2GB, it's two times bigger than its predecessor and much more economical than standard flash memory. More capacity means more photos, more music, more data, and more possibilities. Hitachi's Microdrive 3K4 provides cost-effective personal storage. Weighing just over half an ounce (16 grams) and about the size of a matchbook, Hitachi's Microdrive continues to reign as the world's smallest hard disk drive. This drive uses ultra-miniaturized components, including Hitachi's femto slider technology, which enables higher capacities and better power efficiency. With a maximum sustained data rate of over 7MB/sec, Hitachi's 2GB Microdrive is the fastest product of its kind. No other product on the market offers a better combination of storage capacity, portability, compact size, performance and affordability. The arrival of a 2GB capacity also enables and delivers a cost-effective solution for running complex operating systems in embedded applications, or portable digital devices like PDAs and handheld PCs.
