The hard drive is mounted directly to the notebook frame, reducing the
transmission of shock away from the hard drive. Uses three-axis digital
motion detection with intelligent sensitivity to help protect the hard drive
during normal use from shock and vibration. The digital accelerometer
temporarily halts all data transfer and parks the hard drive when abrupt
motion is detected.
