Seagate Technology - booth 549

* Barracuda 7200.9 low power spin-up drive -- The industry's only 3.5-inch
low-power spin-up disc drive for external storage enclosures. Built with
Barracuda's signature reliability, these drives deliver the industry's
lowest start-up current to increase system design flexibility and
prevent system crashes or other start-up problems caused by the huge
power draw when powering up external enclosures.
* Momentus 5400.3 -- Designed for mainstream and high-capacity notebook
and tablet PCs, the industry's first 2.5-inch disc drive to use
perpendicular recording technology and deliver the highest areal
density, 132 Gbits per square inch. The drive delivers up to 160GB of
capacity, the highest available in a mobile form factor, and
industry-leading shock tolerances.
* Momentus 5400 FDE -- A hardware-based full disc encryption (FDE)
solution that delivers strong protection for data stored on lost or
stolen notebook PCs. The 2.5-inch hard drive, which encrypts and
