Hard-drive maker Seagate Technology yesterday said it would release a 2.5-inch disc drive with 160 GB capacity in the first quarter of 2006. The drive is built on perpendicular recording technology, a technology that stands data bits on end on the disc platter rather than flat to the surface as with existing longitudinal recording to achieve new levels of hard drive data density and storage capacity.
