Hitachi CinemaStar P7K500 - hard drive - 500 GB - SATA-300

The CinemaStar P7K500 hard drive provides customized features, high capacity and power efficiency making it an ideal solution for consumer electronics (CE) devices like digital video recorders and set-top boxes. An exceptional blend of audio/visual (AV) features fine tunes the CinemaStar P7K500 for digital video storage needs. Hitachi SmoothStream technology is enabled to support the ATA-7 streaming command set, and SCT provides time limited error recovery and thermal monitoring capabilities. Because IT data and video streams have different throughput demands, AV-Zoning allows the definition of various error recovery procedures for predefined ranges of data blocks, or zones. This feature enables the system to effectively deliver critical system data and time-sensitive video content from a single drive. Other features that help tailor this drive for streaming video applications include Read Continuous mode, which helps manage error recovery for video streams, and Media Maintenance enhancements, which help prevent track wear-out from around-the-clock operation. Leveraging six generations of power management technology, this new breed of CE drive delivers best-in-class power management and thermal emissions. HiVERT technology was pioneered on 2.5-inch drives to help maximize battery life, but also works for this 3.5-inch hard drive to help minimize power consumption. These standard features on the CinemaStar P7K500 enable manufacturers to develop digital video recorders that run cooler and require less power which ultimately leads to longer product life. All CinemaStar products are enhanced with silent-seek acoustics to deliver bedroom-quiet operation, and Hitachi patented load/unload ramp mechanism that helps prevent disk wear and protects the disk during non-operation. The CinemaStar P7K500 is also built using industry's most reliable perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR) techniques to maximize capacity, performance and field reliability.
