Re: [LIB] Hitachi 5200 overheat L70? 40GB 2.5" HDDs for MP3 use

For some reason there seems to be an overall classification of drive models, and then sub-classes. Your IC25N040ATCS-04-0, or IC25N040ATCS040 falls somewhere in the range of IBM Travelstar models 10E to DVAS: http://www.hgst.com/tech/techlib.nsf/pages/main?OpenDocument I'd like to pull it out and put it in my Archos (moving my 20Gig Archos Recorder drive to my wife's 5Gig Archos Player), but only if I can upgrade in size and preferably downgrade in power usage. Well, from what I can see so far, the Hitachi DK23FB series look the fastest and most efficient from what I can deduce. There are 60GB, 40GB and 20GB models, all of which seem to have basically the same performance specs. The problem is that Hitachi doesn't seem to have put out a data sheet on the line. What I can find is limited to the spec sheel on the Dell website, and a few little ads for the drive. http://docs.us.dell.com/docs/storage/p51920/specs.htm But if speed isn't a factor for you, though I'd think like me, you'd want your MP3s to load in a resoanble amount of time, then the Travelstar 80GN 80GB model IC25N080ATMR04 may do you well. You can find specs on all Travelstar drives here: http://www.hgst.com/tech/techlib.nsf/pages/main?OpenDocument Or more directly, specs on the 80GN series here: http://www.hgst.com/tech/techlib.nsf/products/Travelstar_80GN Matt _ Add MSN 8 Internet Software to your existing Internet access and enjoy patented spam protection and more.

Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2003 07:50:01 + From: "Matt Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: Hitachi 5200 overheat L70? Interesting specs David. I pasted the data you sent together in a pseudo table format to make things easier for me. The specs for the Travelstar 80GN/4200 and Toshiba MK8025GAS/4200 are pretty impressive compared to their 5200RPM counterparts. But it's really frustrating when I go right to the spec sheets from the manufacturers, and find that there are 2-3 models that are sub-classes of each model. Which drives are which among the specs you forwarded me isn't clear. Though the differences between sub-class models are not that great I guess. The article Tom pointed to comparing the Toshiba MK4019GAX and Travelstar 40GNX were enlightening, and from there finding a 40GB model in the Travelstar 40GNX line lead to that Hitachi DK23FB series that has got my attention for their energy efficiency and performance. I'll try calling the companies selling them tomorrow, and see if I can find out a bit more about the series.

However, the keyboard of the 100CT seems to be in better shape than the one of the 110CT. Also, the 100CT's has two keys more (AltGr right of the space bar and an "empty" key ("Any Key"? ;-) ) to the left, with a shorter space bar). That is the French layout, with the "<>" key, not managed with the us/uk keyboard Hence, I'd like to swap the keyboards.
