The Hitachi TRK-3D8 is a type of hard disk drive (HDD) that was introduced by Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (HGST) in September 2010. This drive stands out due to its 3D bit-patterned magnetic recording (BPMR) technology, which allows for higher storage density and increased areal density. The TRK-3D8 features eight cylinders with 4096 tracks per cylinder and 128 recorded sectors per track, resulting in a total storage capacity of up to 1 terabyte (TB) with an average bit density of approximately 430 kbit/in² (71 Gbits/in²). Additionally, the TRK-3D8 has a rotational speed of 7200 RPM, a Serial ATA (SATA) 3.0 Gb/s interface, and a power consumption of approximately 6.0 watts (Idle), 5.8 watts (Read), and 6.3 watts (Write).
