Hitachi to produce 1 TB drives

Hitachi to produce 1 TB drives 04/04/2005 11:36 AM
Hitachi on Monday is set to announce it will release hard drives containing 230 gigabits of data per square inch by 2007, making a 1-inch 20 GB microdrive, allowing for a 20 GB iPod mini. According to senior vice president of product strategy and marketing at Hitachi Bill Healy, the density breakthrough represents a refinement in perpendicular recording. Hard drives currently store data in a longitudinally, with the heads scanning over a horizontal plane. For perpendicular recording, data bits are aligned vertically, allowing for more data to be placed into an area. "We're redesigning the head and disc quite significantly," Healy told CNET. "All we have done is longitudinal recording in hard drives since the 1950s. We've got a babysitting program running in the back to see how the hard drives are doing. We are building up our understanding of our quality and reliability."

Hitachi Talks Up 6GB Palm PDA 06/24/2005 04:02 PM

Shouldn't be much of a surprise, but the leakiest PR group in hard drives, Hitachi, has confirmed that they're newest 6GB Microdrive will be used inside one of Palms PDAs—almost certainly a successor to, or upgraded version of the LifeDrive.

Also, note! CanalPDA is translating some of their news items into English. That's a good thing, because the only words I can understand that end in vowels are foods.

Hitachi Pal and Chum Robots

Hitachi Pal and Chum Robots 03/22/2005 04:46 PM

Lots of robots are showing up for the World Exposition in Japan's Aichi prefecture later this month, including these two bots from Hitachi that look a bit like Segways. Dubbed 'Pal and Chum,' for their ability to both lure and befriend sharks, the 150-pound robots are reported to have reaction times as low a 1/10th of a second.

We spoke of the duo last week as walking assistants, but apparently that's not the case. In fact, if you were to use them to stop yourself from falling, they'd probably go right over. Plus, it took me a week to think of that shark gag.

Hitachi FLORA-ie MX1: Pocket PC
Powerhouse 02/01/2005 09:08 PM

Hitachi has announced a new Japanese PDA called the FLORA-ie MX1, a 400MHz Pocket PC running Windows Mobile 2003SE. The most stand-out feature of the MX1 is definitely the Zaurus-like slide-out keyboard which is certain to make it lusted after by many Western Pocket PC fans, who have been privy to integrated keyboards before, but nothing quite the same. As a big fan of the Zaurus form factor (and less so the Linux environment it runs) I'd say it's a pretty appealing design. I hope Hitachi considers bringing it to the US.

It's beefy, too, with a 4-inch VGA screen, built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and SD and CF slots—everything a Windows pocket-sagger should be.
