Product info

Toshiba Storage Device Division introduces a new 1.8-inch Hard Disk Drive, the MK8009GAH.

It is based on perpendicular magnetic recording and has a capacity of 80GB. Through the use of a new Low Insertion Force connector (LIF), it is 7 millimetres shorter than current Toshiba drives. This allows manufacturers the possibility to produce even smaller consumer electronics products.

The new drive incorporates the ATA-6 interface and offer 8MB buffer memory.

The MK8009GAH has been developed specifically for ultra-portable devices such as mp3 and multi-media players and Personal Video Recorders.
