Samsung Electronics is now ready to launch the MH80 series hybrid hard drives that are available in 80GB, 120GB and 160GB capacities and with 128MB or 256MB of built-in flash memory.

Optimized to work in conjunction with Windows Vista capable notebook PCs, Samsung’s MH80 combines a hard disk drive with a cache comprised of Samsung’s OneNAND flash memory, and Microsoft’s ReadyDrive software, offering faster boot and resume times, increased battery life and greater reliability compared to traditional magnetic media technology.

The MH80 hybrid HDD boasts Samsung’s ReadyBoot technology which allows up to a 50% reduction in boot and resume times from traditional magnetic media technology. The drive also consumes 70-90% less power than a traditional hard drive, extending laptop’s battery life by around 30 minutes.
