Hard drive supplier Seagate Technology today unveiled its 320GB version of GoFlex slim portable hard drive in India, which it claimed is the world's slimmest hard drive.

The new GoFlex slim hard drive is priced at Rs 4,500 and will be available through the Seagate distribution channels and at select retail outlets in India.

Equipped with a 7200 RPM drive and a USB 3.0 interface to accelerate transfer speeds up to 10x faster than USB 2.0, this super-slim drive delivers quick access to large, multi-media files such as HD movies and video games, the company said.

The faster drive speed takes full advantage of the included plug-and-play USB 3.0 interface, while still maintaining compatibility with USB 2.0 ports.

"The continued growth of personal digital media stores, our increasingly mobile lifestyles and the continued proliferation of mobile devices are driving the demand for slimmer, more portable storage solutions," Seagate's Country Manager(India), Rajesh Khurana, told reporters here.
