Record Capacity by Fujitsu for a 7,200rpm Notebook HDD: 320GB

Fujitsu
Computer Products of America, Inc. announced the release of its 2.5-inch 320GB
7200RPM SATA hard disk drive (HDD), its second-generation high capacity
7200RPM SATA drive. By doubling storage capacity, increasing data
throughput, and keeping power consumption low, Fujitsu has created a
2.5-inch HDD that rivals the performance of traditional 3.5-inch form
factor desktop HDDs. Slim-line desktop PCs, along with mainstream and
high performance gaming laptops, will benefit from the combination of
high storage capacity and high performance. Users will be able to
optimize their gaming experience, or store and run simultaneous
multimedia photo, high-definition video and office applications.

"Worldwide shipments of
2.5-inch 7200RPM SATA HDDs increased more than 90% in 2007 while
average overall 2.5-inch HDD capacities grew more than 60%," said John
Monroe, a research vice president at Gartner. "As average HDD
capacities continue to increase, the need for greater performance to
take full advantage of rich media applications in mobile computing
environments will create new dimensions of demand and new opportunities
for drive makers and PC OEMs. We anticipate a combined annual growth
rate for 2.5-inch 7200RPM SATA HDDs in excess of 60% during the next
five years."

Fujitsu has once again
engineered a hard disk drive that is unmatched in the marketplace.
320GB of capacity in a 2.5-inch form factor allows manufacturers to
design creative new PCs and applications that aren’t inhibited by
performance and capacity limitations. As a part of Fujitsu’s Green
Policy Innovation Program, unveiled in December 2007, the Fujitsu MHZ2
BJ series HDD will ensure performance for multimedia and data-intensive
applications like gaming, graphic editing and high-definition video,
while reducing power consumption.

"Users continue to demand
increased HDD capacity and speed, and we are taking an impressive step
in that direction by delivering the first 320GB 7200RPM mobile drives,"
said Joel Hagberg, vice president, marketing and business development,
Fujitsu Computer Products of America, Inc. "In addition, Fujitsu and
its customers understand that each future generation of technology must
have a smaller carbon footprint without sacrificing quality or
performance. The MHZ2 series exemplifies Fujitsu’s dedication to
technology innovation and energy efficiency."

The
Fujitsu MHZ2 BJ hard disk drive series will start shipping in the
second calendar quarter of 2008.
