Incorporating the Drive Noise Suppression System (DNSS), this new hard drive offers reduced noise levels compared to previous generation hard drives without DNSS. DNSS replaces the traditional ball-bearing design in previous models with the fluid dynamic bearing spindle motor technology and voice coil motor dampening enhancements. These efforts result in acoustical noise reduction, improved shock tolerance, and improved reliability.

This new ThinkPad hard drive balances the requirements of capacity, performance, size, and reliability to meet the exacting standards of ThinkPad customers.
