According to PC World, both Hitachi and Fujitsu are shipping their 100GB notebook hard drives.
“Both drives, Hitachi’s Travelstar 7K100 series and Fujitsu’s MHV2100BH, are 2.5-inch types and are available with a maximum capacity of 100GB.
Hitachi’s new drives represent the company’s second generation of notebook drives with a disk rotational speed of 7200 rpm.
