The new Seagate hard disk drive, tailor made for laptop computers and tablets, is now shipping

in Dell computers and other popular devices. The Seagate® Laptop Ultrathin HDD is just 5mm and has up to 500GB of storage capacity. The 2.5-inch drive weighs only 3.3oz., so it doesn’t add significantly to the weight of today’s mobile devices like tablets, phablets and slim notebook computers. 

According to Seagate, the drive is as thin as four credit cards in a stack and lighter than a deck of playing cards.

Features of the New Seagate Hard Disk Drive
The storage industry has been eagerly awaiting this “world’s thinnest” HDD since it was introduced in September 2012, and it began shipping this summer. The drive:

– can store more than 100,000 photos, 125,000 songs or 62 hours of HD video, making it perfect for business owners and professionals on the road, families, and individuals who want to bring their media collection with them wherever they go

– uses a 6Gb/s SATA interface with industry-standard SATA connections for easy integration into laptops that support HDD and SSD storage

– has available SED encryption to keep your data private and secure

Seagate Data Recovery Services
The new Seagate HDD looks to fill a gap in the marketplace for OEM partners and anyone looking for the slim profile and lightweight of a Solid State Drive, but isn’t yet ready to make that transition to SSD for whatever reason.
