Laptop IDE drive 100 GB

The Fujitsu MHU2100AT is a new 2.5-inch internal hard drive with a 100 GB capacity and an IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 interface. It spins at 4200 RPM and includes an 8 MB cache. Low power consumption and acoustic reduction technology suit portable use.

Suits older notebooks needing IDE

This drive fits laptops that require a 2.5-inch IDE connection and benefit from quiet, low-power operation at 2.0 W to 2.1 W typical. It is not for systems that need a different physical or electrical interface. Builders who want higher throughput or larger capacities should consider other options.

IDE Ultra ATA100 interface decides fit

The IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive will work in a given machine. Verify that the host system supports this exact interface before purchase. Average seek time is 12 ms and average latency is 7.14 ms.

Questions about this item

Does the 4200 RPM spindle limit sustained transfer speed?

Yes, the 4200 RPM rotation means sequential throughput is lower than faster drives; the 8 MB cache helps small bursts but cannot overcome the spindle limit.

How much power and noise should I expect from the 2.5" drive during all-day use?

Typical read/write draw is 2.0 W / 2.1 W with acoustic reduction technology for whisper-quiet operation.

Will my laptop accept the IDE Ultra ATA100 connector on this bare drive?

It fits any 2.5" bay with a native IDE Ultra ATA100 / ATA-6 interface; no adapter is needed if the host already provides that connector.
