Engadget —
That's the world's largest capacity 1.8-inch hard disk drive right there. A claim met by a list of specs going a little something like this: 3.0Gbps SATA interface, 320GB capacity, 5,400 RPM, 16MB buffer, and 19dB of emitted noise during seeks -- a 4dB cut from Toshiba's previous generation of 5,400 RPM 1.8-inchers. Of course, these 1.8-inch mechanical ...

Toshiba 320GB 1.8-inch HDD is world’s biggest
SlashGear —
Flash and solid-state drives have been catching up to tiny, 1.8-inch traditional hard-drives in ultramobile applications over the past year or so, but Toshiba don’t think spinning platters are quite outmoded yet. The company have revealed three new 1.8-inch HDDs including the industry’s first 320GB unit, using unique high-density platters that permit data density of 516Gbpsi.
Each of the 3.0Gbps SATA drives spin at 5,400rpm and have 16MB of buffer memory, while there’s apparently less of the high-pitched whine sometimes associated with such HDDs; in fact noise is down between 4 and 5dB over previous models. As well as the 320GB drive, ...

Toshiba introduces 320GB 1.8 inch hard drive
Liliputing —
Toshiba’s latest hard drive is both really big, and really small. On the one hand, it can hold up to 320GB of data, which hardly makes it the highest capacity hard drive for mobile devices. But it’s better than the 160GB and 250GB hard drives that come with most netbooks. But at just 1.8 inches, the 1.8 inch hard drive is small enough to ...
