MK8057GSC 80GB (4,200rpm/SATA)  

The seventh-generation, automotive-grade HDD (model MK8057GSC) is Toshiba’s first to offer a SATA interface, complementing the company’s existing line of Parallel-ATA (PATA) products in 40GB, 60GB and 80GB capacities.  Migration to the SATA interface enables automotive in-dash system designers to easily integrate with the latest automotive chip-set technologies.  The SATA storage interface allows automotive systems designers to reduce signal-line complexity, while supporting faster top-end data transfer rates versus Parallel-ATA (PATA) based HDDs.
