An exciting new magnetic recording technology has been introduced into hard drive storage. Perpendicular Magnetic Recording (PMR) offers the customer higher capacities, improved reliability and robustness, and a very positive outlook for future growth in capacity and performance. Through the efforts of a company-wide taskforce, Hitachi's first PMR drive, Travelstar 5K160, achieves best-of-breed performance and quality and is well positioned to ramp seamlessly to high volume production. Drive development incorporated a yearlong field test that successfully demonstrated the viability of Hitachi's advanced design. Core technologies include second-generation trailing-shield heads and advanced granular Cobalt-Chromium-Platinum (CoCrPt) oxide media.
