300GB UMPC anyone? Fujitsu’s new HDD.

Posted on 12 December 2006, Last updated on 16 March 2019 by

Akihabara have just posted info on the new 300GB 2.5″ drive from Fujitsu.

Just imagine dropping that in a UMPC. You could turn it into a low-power network storage device with battery backup. Its got a 1.6W max power requirement.

Unfortunately I’m not aware of any UMPC’s that are using 2.5″ drives with a S-ATA connector. The one’s I’ve seen so far have been low-profile ZIF devices. Anyone got any tips on this?

The press release here states that they are aiming to sell 1.5 million units in 2007.

Steve.

    before i put all my chips in on this, so to speak, I’d like to know a bit about pricing.

    However that much space would be amazing on a UMPC.
