Seagate ships free-fall detecting laptop hard drive

seagate notebook hard drive

Seagate has said you can now buy the world`s first 7,200rpm notebook hard drive that uses perpendicular recording technology to boost storage capacity and can detect when it`s being dropped.

The drive, the Momentus 7200.2 is available in a range of capacities running from 80GB to 160GB. It`s based on the 2.5in form-factor that`s the de facto standard for notebooks and connects to the host machine across a 3Gbps SATA interface, so the line`s ready to replace lower-capacity and slower, 5,400rpm hard drives built into most modern laptops.

Each drive contains a motion-sensor. If it detects the drive is in free fall, it immediate and quickly moves the read/write heads away from the platter to prevent them damaging data upon impact.
