The Hitachi E5K160 2.5-inch hard drive is a high-capacity, high-performance, low-power drive designed for 24/7 operation in low-transaction environments. It features Hitachi's Vertical Magnetic Recording (PMR) technology, which provides extremely low soft error rates and excellent corrosion resistance. The E5K160 also offers 540 Mb/sec internal transfer rates and has been proven to offer the best application performance among 5400RPM drives in PCMark tests.
The Hitachi E5K160 is a high‑reliability mobile hard disk designed for continuous 24‑hour data access in low‑transaction environments such as blade servers, routers, and point‑of‑sale terminals. It uses vertical magnetic recording (PMR) technology and offers capacities up to 160 GB.
Key features include parallel ATA (ATA‑7) and SATA 1.5 Gb/s interfaces, 540 Mb/s internal transfer rate, low power consumption (5.0 W active, 0.2 W idle), 5400 RPM speed, and robust shock resistance (325 G working, 1000 G non‑working). The drive operates from –40 °C to 65 °C and meets stringent reliability standards. This manual is written in Chinese.
