W
hen the 140MB HDD was introduced in 1973,
no one would have even imagined the current 500
Gigabytes HDD in production today. The complexity of
programs, and popular use of graphic / AV applications,
inevitably makes the PC user to consider the capacity of HDD
as an important factor in selecting the PC along with the CPU
speed and the size of RAM memory. To address this change in
the market, Samsung has succeeded in producing the 500 Gigabytes hard disk drive,
constructed from three 166 Gigabytes per platter disks. This page will describe how this
high-capacity HDD now provides a new world of enjoyment and convenience to users.
AV Environment in PC With the rapid distribution of the PC and the Internet, more
and more users want to implement AV features of TV, VTR, and Recorder in their PCs.
Especially, in cases of users in urban areas, they prefer to purchase the PC with AV
features, instead of buying other electronic appliances, to make most out of limited
living spaces. This has enabled PCs with AV features, such as TV and PVR, to emerge in
the market. For example, a PC with a built-in PVR feature, allows the user to use the
instant playback function on their PCs, without purchasing any separate PVR devices.
With a 160 to 500 Gigabytes high-capacity HDD, they can also store and edit many
movies on their PCs. The consequence is that consumers can enjoy almost all AV features,
such as music, movies, Internet, and TV programs, with a single PC. The high-capacity
HDD allows users to store more movies and music titles on their PCs, and has dramatically
increased the range and quality of the PC experience for users.
Increase of PVR demand. When we think of HDD, we usually think of storage
mechanism in IT devices. Now, we can find this storage mechanism in device like Personal
video Recorder. More and more people tend to store their favorite movies, sports games,
and TV shows in their homes. With PVR, they can simply download these contents into
HDD inside it. Increasing demand of multimedia contents automatically increase the
demand for storage space to store.
High-capacity HDD to Increase Productivity for Professionals
Typically, 10 Gigabytes is required to produce a new catalogue for backup files. When
several persons are working together, it is more efficient and convenient to keep the
backup files on the HDD rather than on other media, such as CD RW and floppy disks.
Therefore, the capacity of the HDD can directly affect the productivity levels of
professionals, such as graphic designers.
