The Noteworthy 340 Million Bytes PC Card Hard Disk Drive is the ideal storage solution. Used as a supplemental storage solution, this card provides over 340 million bytes of uncompressed disk capacity to supplement your internal hard drive. Backing-up your work while on the road is as quick and easy as dragging a directory from your main drive and dropping it on your Noteworthy PC Card hard drive. Large multimedia and database files can be transferred from your notebook to your desktop computer using the Noteworthy drive. Confidential information can be saved to your 340 million bytes drive and kept under lock and key. The applications for this powerful little package are limitless.

Patented dynamic head loading technology provides a very rugged and reliable drive for your valuable data. In idle mode, or whenever the drive is spun down, the heads are parked safely off the recording media on a ramp preventing head/media contact. In addition, a patented inertial lock secures the heads on the ramp if a linear or rotational shock occurs.

The Noteworthy 340 Million Bytes HDD efficiently manages power consumption to extend your computers battery life. Unlike other low power drives, the Noteworthy 340 delivers high performance with average seek times of 12 milliseconds and excellent data transfer rates for fast data access. Noteworthy, the solutions provider for mobile computing professionals.
