Seagate Technology announced that it has started shipping its 40GB, 60GB and
80GB LD25 series hard drives to a new generation of technology appliance
manufacturers. The LD25 series drive is ideal for game consoles, low-profile
set-top boxes, home entertainment devices, small-form-factor computing
applications, and other emerging fixed applications.
The next generation gaming consoles will be the first-to-market with the new
60GB LD25 series hard drive and are increasingly utilizing hard drive
technology, to enable a more satisfying and exciting gaming experience. Gaming
consoles with an embedded or attached hard drive are capable of delivering a
more comprehensive set of features than those without hard drive storage.
The LD25 series drive allows gamers to download digital content–such as
game levels, characters, maps, weapons and vehicles, game demos, video trailers
and audio files; support their custom music play lists in every game; store
video messages from friends; and save games. In addition, hard drives enable
gamers to purchase digital content for a much richer and robust gaming
experience.
