According to Seagate, the 1TB hard drive will be its second generation 3.5-inch hard drive to feature capacity-boosting perpendicular recording technology, and it will use fewer heads and discs than similar-capacity products from its competitors. The Seagate 1TB drives will have four high density platters of 250GB each.

Seagate claims that fewer heads and discs, along with perpendicular technology, can increase drive reliability, and also reduce operating temperatures, power consumption, noise, and weight.

To date, Seagate has shipped more than 10 million 3.5-inch hard drives with its perpendicular recording technology in the PC, enterprise, and consumer electronics markets.{moscomment}
