With thickness of only 7mm, the Seagate Momentus Thin Drive is crowned as the thinnest 2.5-inch hard disk drive in the world. Designed for ultra-portable and entry-level laptops, high-end netbooks, backup devices and consumer electronics, the drive is 25% slimmer than traditional 9.5mm 2.5-inch laptop hard drives.
“The Momentus® Thin drive promises to help computer makers differentiate on mobile-computing form factor and better compete in the fast-growing markets for thin laptop PCs and netbooks,†said Dave Mosley, executive vice president of Sales, Marketing and Product Line Management at Seagate. “Seagate is committed to helping its OEM and system integrator partners meet market demand for thinner laptop PCs and plans to expand storage capabilities for thin laptops as demand for these slimmer models continues to grow.â€
