Well it’s pretty difficult to cram billions of information into a tiny storage area, but Hitachi has proven the impossible, whereby they have recently showcased their latest rotational hard drives which measures only 7-mm thick, and can store a whopping 500GB inside.
Basically, the drive works on a single platter platform, and it also measures 2.5 inches diagonally, which would fit perfectly inside a laptop. On the other hand, the Z5K500 hard drive has 5400RPM rotational speed, while the Z7K320 offers 7200RPM, if you need the extra speed. Surely, 500GB on a single platter – now that’s epic!
