Channel News Asia – researchers in Singapore have developed one of the world's thinnest hybrid hard disk drives with storage capacity of over 1 terabyte.

Called the “A-Drive”, it is 5mm thick, or 30 per cent thinner than existing hard disk drives, and is targeted for use in tablets, ultrabooks and future data centres.

Typically, existing 7mm-thick hard disk drives have a storage capacity of 500 gigabytes.

The “A-Drive” will provide storage capacities of up to 1 terabyte from the magnetic spinning disks, and 32 gigabytes from flash memory technology.
