The Hitachi Deskstar internal hard drive kit delivers colossal add-on storage and award-winning performance with an industry-standard interface. Choose either a high-performing 7200 RPM or low-power CoolSpin models in a standard 3.5-inch desktop form factor. No additional hardware is required to overcome the 2.2 TB limitations of Windows systems with 4 TB and 3 TB kits as they ship with Hitachi GPT Disk Manager.

CoolSpin technology provides excellent power utilization and heat emission, as well as quiet acoustics.

The Hitachi Deskstar hard drive features a robust mechanical design that exceeds the industry standard for quality and reliability. Through a patterned ramp load/unload design, the risk of shock damage is minimized by eliminating direct contact between the heads and disks, reducing wear and heat while improving the overall drive reliability and power efficiency.

The Deskstar™ 7K4000 offers the industry's highest hard drive capacity at an enormous four terabytes of storage with 7200 RPM performance in a standard 3.5-inch form factor.

This drive uses Advanced Format, which increases the sector size on HDDs from 512 bytes to 4096 (4K) bytes, thereby increasing capacities and improving error correcting capabilities.

Consult the Hitachi Advanced Format Technology Brief for more information. The 7K4000 also boasts a 6Gb/s SATA interface and 64MB cache buffer to balance performance and capacity.

The Deskstar 7K4000 is designed to help manufacturers deliver high-performance, high-capacity, power-efficient systems. Manufacturers planning to use the 4TB drive in systems should consult the Hitachi High Capacity Technology Brief.
