As Hollywood prepares to release its latest summer blockbusters, Hitachi Global Storage Technologies proudly introduces two new stars of its own: the CinemaStar™ C5K320, a 2.5-inch hard drive with up to 320 GB capacity and the CinemaStar™ 5K500, a 3.5-inch hard drive with 500GB of storage capacity and new CoolSpin™ technology to deliver high levels of power efficiency and quiet operation for digital video applications. CoolSpin drives use a low-power motor design, which requires less power to spin up the drive than most 3.5-inch hard drives. The low-power profile of these new drives enables the use of more cost-effective power supplies, which lowers energy costs for consumers.

Hitachi’s new CinemaStar hard disk drives are optimized for use in today’s advanced home theater systems, providing high-capacity storage for set-top boxes, digital video recorders (DVRs) and media center PCs. With customized features, capacity and cool operation, the new CinemaStar drives usher in a new generation of consumer devices that store more hours of video, run more quietly and use less power.
