Formatting Your Heart Drive
Excuse me, Terrence. As you can see, it is I, Gregory from three cubes down directly south of yours. I have been chosen by the rest of our Information Technologies department to address certain behaviors you’ve been engaging in that have been found disruptive to your co-workers, specifically ME. These behaviors include loud crying fits, prolonged mournful moaning, disinterest in assigned projects, and a disheveled appearance unbecoming of an IT professional. Is this an accurate overview? I will take your silent tears as an affirmative response.
You may be surprised to know this, Terrence, but I am no stranger to matters of the heart. I have saved many a princess in my day in countless gaming environments and have even known the gentle touch of a woman without the exchange of money on more than three occasions. My advice to you is this: think of your heart as if it were a Hitachi Deskstar™ 5K4000 hard drive and each memory of her as a digital file of some kind. Gather up every email, every MP3 that reminds you of her, every digital photo of the good times, even the naughty little videos you made together HEE HEE snort HEE HEE snort. Excuse me, Terrence, I forgot myself there.
Now then, I trust I shall not have to return to your cubicle for further assistance, yes? Excellent. Do yourself a favor, co-worker. Right click your heart, create new folder, title it “Dungeons & Dragons” and save those pesky emotions for the role-playing where they belong. As you can see, it has done wonders for me.
Features
CoolSpin design for desktop systems
The Deskstar™ 5K4000 hard drive provides an enormous 4TB capacity and features innovative CoolSpin technology to deliver a greater level of power efficiency and quiet operation for energy-conscious, environmentally-friendly computers. This drive uses Advanced Format, which increases the sector size on HDDs from 512 bytes to 4096 (4K) bytes, thereby increasing capacities and improving error correcting capabilities. Consult the Hitachi Advanced Format Technology Brief for more information.
CoolSpin technology is an optimization of motor speed to provide an ideal balance of performance, power utilization and acoustics. With low power, high capacity and cool operation, the 3.5-inch Deskstar 5K4000 helps manufacturers deliver more eco-friendly systems.
Power efficient for cooler operation and longer life
The CoolSpin technology, along with other Hitachi power management techniques, gives the Deskstar 5K4000 its 28% power savings over the Deskstar 7K3000. HiVERT technology helps efficiently manage power consumption. These innovations, along with eighth-generation Advanced Power Management, make the Deskstar 5K4000 the ideal choice for energy efficient PCs that run cooler, require less power and last longer.
Innovation for a more sustainable environment
The Deskstar 5K4000 demonstrates Hitachi ecological leadership with its halogen-free design and power-efficient operation. Both of these features helped qualify the drive for the Hitachi EcoTrac classification, which identifies products that minimize environmental impact in the areas of product design, manufacturing, operation and disposal.
