The new MHX2300BT drive is based on perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) technology, which is essential in achieving increased capacity per platter. It brings notebooks a step closer to matching the storage capacity of desktop machines - desktop drives are currently available in capacities of up to 750GB.
Fujitsu says that among the additional benefits of the new hard drive are low power consumption - just 1.6W - high shock tolerance and near-silent operation.
Two models have been launched, one with storage capacity of 250GB and the other 300GB. Both drives have a 4,200RPM rotational speed and a SATA interface.
The drives also boast an average track-to-track seek time of 1.5ms; a maximum host transfer rate of 150MB/s; and a high operating shock tolerance of 300G (2ms).
The drives will be available in the first quarter of next year.
Toshiba unveiled a 200GB 2.5in hard drive in June.
