New technology exceeds expectations  
Travelstar™ 5K160, Hitachi’s first hard drive to use perpendicular magnetic recording (PMR),  
delivers superior technology and reliability. With capacities up to 160 GB, industry-leading  
performance, low-power consumption and excellent shock resistance, Travelstar 5K160  
has the key attributes to support the stringent demands of portable computing. Improved  
electronics design further reduces the power consumption of this 5400 RPM drive, which  
beats its industry-leading predecessor by 10%; the 5K160 also runs cooler than the competi-  
tion. Hitachi has also implemented Thermal Fly-height Control (TFC) for improved error rates,  
and iridium-manganese-chromium (IrMnCr) read heads for improved reliability. Hitachi has  
done extensive testing to verify Travelstar 5K160‘s best-in-class standing, making it the  
“Super-pendicular Drive.”

Reliability leadership  
PATA and SATA 1.5 Gb/s  
With the transition to new PMR technology, Travelstar 5K160 demonstrates reliability that  
parallels or exceeds 50-year old conventional longitudinal technology. Hitachi has integrated  
second-generation PMR head and media technology, along with a new read channel and  
IrMnCr read heads. This successful transition required new materials, complex processes,  
tools and testing. Hitachi leveraged the depth and breadth of its internal resources to deliver  
the most reliable PMR mobile product in the industry.**
