Seagate Introduces Mobile 2TB HDD, 2.5-inch high-capacity

News from Seagate with the presentation of the new 2.5-inch mechanical hard drives and 2TB HDD Mobile 7mm thick. The dimensions are typical of drives that can fit in most laptop PCs, although the use of this drive are also others.

The unit is part of a family that actually also includes a 1TB model, with which it shares the Shingled Magnetic Recording storage technology (SMR). Shingle in English means tile, and in fact the storage mode follows the typical layout that we see on the roofs, or part of an industry that goes to soprapporsi other. In the area of hard drives this allows greater use of the available surface, from which the record capacity of 1TB per platter (the 2TB version has two).

The engine speed is 5400 rpm, while on the front says Seagate performance transfer rates of around 100MB / s, or about 50% less than the best performing 2.5-inch mechanical commercially. The series is clearly to provide much space as possible, which is why it is not surprising if performance is not at the top.

In addition to using the notebook these units are presented as a great alternative to the so-called "cold storage" in the enterprise, or those up very low frequency of access which still require considerable space in TB. Whereas in a 5.25-inch bay can stay there up to eight of these units, here Seagate 2TB HDD Mobile can meet even in these areas.

Max Q: Anomalous

Hello and welcome back to Max Q! Last week wasn’t the most successful for spaceflight missions. We’ll get into that a bit more below. In this issue: First up, a botched launch from Virgin Orbit… …followed by one from ABL Space Systems News from Rocket Lab, World View and more Virgin Orbit’s botched launch highlights shaky financial future After Virgin Orbit’s launch failure last Monday, during which the mission experienced an  “anomaly” that prevented the rocket from reaching orbit, I went back over the company’s financials — and things aren’t looking good. For Virgin Orbit, this year has likely been completely turned on its head. The company was aiming for three launches this year, but everything will remain grounded until the cause of the anomaly has been identified and resolved. It’s unclear how long that will take, but likely at least three months. Add this delay to Virgin’s dwindling cash reserves and you have a foundation that’s suddenly much shakier than before. ...
