Key Features
The Hitachi DK228A-65 is a vintage 2.5-inch hard drive, released in May 1998, featuring 6.48GB capacity. It was a significant release as Hitachi's first drive to use GMR heads, allowing for higher areal density and a 4,200 RPM spindle speed, resulting in a maximum transfer rate of 13.4 MB/s. It has a height of 12.7mm, making it a 'slim' drive for notebooks of that time.
