Seagate just announced two new additions to the Seagate Pipeline group of hard drives made to fit in digital video recorders (DVRs). The Pipeline HD mini and Pipeline HD.2 focus on the importance of acoustics to attract consumers that need to have access to their data 24/7. Seagate managed to keep the sounds of operation down to a silent 21 decibels while at the same time increasing the amount of recyclable materials used in the build. Both drives are made of 50 percent recyclable materials and achieve a 52 percent power saving improvement over the last iteration.
The Pipeline HD mini uses a 2.5 inch hard drive in either 160GB or 250GB capacities, allowing generous room to store up to ten simultaneous stream of HD video, and the Pipeline HD.2 is Seagate's second generation of DVR hard drives in a 3.5 inch form factor. The HD.2 will also be available in 250GB, 500GB and 1TB capacities. Both drives are also designed to work seamlessly with Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system.
