The SpinPoint M5 series utilizes perpendicular
magnetic recording (PMR) technology, and the disk
drive design has been optimized to allow
ultra-precision adjustment of the head parking
ramp position for high-density recording.
The M5 Series has been developed specifically for
portable consumer electronics, where the key to
success lies in controlling noise, vibration and
power consumption. Samsung's SpinPoint M5 hard
drives are fifteen-percent quieter and use
five-percent less energy than other models with
the same storage capacity. The low-noise,
low-power features are attractive to notebook PC
or tablet PCs users.
