This is ‘ONIDA’s Sparkle Range of Washing Machines’ – a perfect and smart choice for every Indian!

Keeping in mind the requirements of the Indian households and the age old practice of using a brush to scrub stains off the clothes, ONIDA has adopted the same concept in its ‘Sparkle range of washing machines’. The ‘in-built brush’ feature gives Indian clothes a hand brush wash with ease of a machine. Additionally the Sparkle reduces water consumption by almost 35% with other unparalleled features making the washing experience less time-consuming, effortless and enjoyable.

The ONIDA Sparkle 65X is a 6.5kg fully-automatic washing machine which comes with some of the finest features a consumer can ever imagine. These features include the Moving Digital Display which apart from providing a clear view of each function, keeps consumers also updated with the wash cycle time and its various washing stages. The Hexodrum Design in Sparkle 65X allows the machine to create a barrier of water between the drum and the clothes thus preventing them from any wear and tear. The machine also has the Hexafin Pulsator comprising of a unique 6-fin circular design that creates a powerful turbulence during the wash cycle forcing the water and the clothes to move in opposite direction, thus enhancing the quality of the wash.

Speaking on the occasion of the launch of ONIDA Sparkle range of washing machines, Mr. K Sriram, VP, Sales, Marketing and Services, Mirc Electronics Ltd. said, “The Indian consumers are meticulous about washing clothes and their process involves a lot of time, effort and energy. Keeping in view this Indian mindset, ONIDA now offers a quick and innovative solution for its Indian consumers, by introducing for the first time ever, the ‘in-built’ brush technology in the fully-automatic Sparkle range of washing machines. This eco-friendly product will help reduce water consumption, effort and time. Indians will surely connect with this idea.”

This washing machine also includes additional features such as the active soak option which allows the clothes to be immersed in detergent for a long time. The machine has a curved tempered glass window which gives a clear view of the clothes during a wash or while soaked in the machine. It also has the eject mechanism for opening and closing the machine door along with the fuzzy logic control feature that automatically adjusts the time and wash cycle depending on the load of clothes. The magic filter of the Sparkle helps remove any excess lint off the clothes while the detergent dissolve cycle ensures better dissolution of the detergent before the soak cycle or the wash cycle begins. Last but not the least, with the tub clean feature in the sparkle range hygiene is also no longer a worry.

The ONIDA Sparkle 65X washing machine comes at an MRP of Rs. 18,990/-. The Sparkle range is available across 4 more models – a 6.5 kg model with an in-built brush & other models in 6.2 kg capacity.

Full Portfolio of 5,400 RPM and 7,200 RPM 2.5-Inch Travelstar Hard Drives Deliver the Perfect Balance of Capacity, Ruggedness and Low-Power to Meet the Needs of Mobile Computing Devices

Hitachi Travelstar 5K750

Hitachi Global Storage Technologies (Hitachi GST) today announced its new 375GB/platter, 5,400 RPM and 7,200 RPM, 2.5-inch hard drives – the Travelstar™ 5K750 and the Travelstar 7K750 hard drive families. Featuring the industry’s highest capacities in a standard 9.5mm two-disk design, the new drives come in capacities of 750GB, 640GB and 500GB. The drives are built on Hitachi’s proven platform for quality and reliability, and feature innovative technology that delivers high shock protection, low power and fast performance for a variety of notebook computers, external storage solutions, gaming consoles and other mobile devices.
The Travelstar 5K750 and 7K750 drive families are the first Hitachi GST hard drives that feature Advanced Format. Advanced Format increases the physical sector size on hard drives from 512 bytes to 4096 (4K) bytes. This helps utilize the storage surface area more efficiently, allowing for increased drive capacities and improved data integrity at higher storage densities. By integrating Hitachi drives with the new Advanced Format, IT managers, system integrators and OEMs can take advantage of the latest operating systems to deliver new high-capacity, power-efficient systems.
“From their recently announced slim, 7mm 2.5-inch drives to their broad new family of standard 9.5mm 2.5-inch hard drives, Hitachi offers a wide variety of capacities, speeds and form factors that support virtually all of our notebook computing needs,” said Wentao Yang, vice president, Global Procurement of Lenovo. “We are currently qualifying and integrating Hitachi’s new 750GB family in to our mainstream and performance systems, and look forward to continuing our relationship with them now and into the future.”

5,400 RPM Travelstar 5K750 Family : The Travelstar 5K750 family is the next generation of Hitachi’s mainstream mobile hard drive line engineered to achieve the best capacity, reliability and cost per gigabyte. It is a 5,400 RPM hard drive offered with an 8 MB buffer and a Serial ATA 3Gb/s interface for fast data transfer rates. The Travelstar 5K750 family has been designed with superior low power consumption for energy efficiency, offering 0.5 watts low power idle and 1.4 watts power during read/write operations, which contributes to longer battery life in notebooks and other unplugged applications. The new Travelstar 5K750 also offers the best non operating shock at 1000G/1ms to protect against bumps and rough handling in mobile environments.

7,200 RPM Travelstar 7K750 Family : The Travelstar 7K750 is the latest hard drive in Hitachi’s most popular 7,200 RPM family, that meets the growing demand for performance computing. With a 16MB buffer, 3Gb/s SATA interface, and excellent media transfer rates, Hitachi Travelstar 7K750 series allows quicker access to data and faster system performance, especially for multi-tasking, and other high performance office and home applications. With the lowest read/write power specification in its class at 1.8W, users don’t have to sacrifice battery life for fast 7,200 RPM performance.

Both Hitachi Travelstar 5K750 and 7K750 families feature exceptional operating shock, Thermal Fly-height Control (TFC) for better soft error rate and improved reliability, and Hitachi’s TrueTrack Technology™ for tracking accuracy in high shock or vibration environments. Fluid dynamic bearing motors also deliver a near silent operation. The drives use halogen-reduced components to support the “green” computing initiatives that are of increasing importance in today’s end users. Hitachi Travelstar 5K750 and 7K750 have also earned the Hitachi EcoTrac classification, used to describe products that minimize environmental impact in the areas of product design, manufacturing, operation and disposal.

Self-encryption Options : Travelstar 7K750 is a self-encrypting drive (SED) designed to meet the industry-standard Trusted Computer Group (TCG) Opal Storage Security specification. This drive is the fifth generation to feature Hitachi’s Bulk Data Encryption (BDE). These self-encrypting drives encrypt data using protected keys in real time, providing users with the highest level of data protection available. It also speeds and simplifies the drive re-deployment process. By deleting the encryption key, the data on the drive is rendered unreadable, thereby eliminating the need for time-consuming data-overwrite.

Enhanced Availably Options : Designed specifically for use in blade servers, network routers and video surveillance systems, the new Travelstar 5K750 and 7K750 EA models bring together a host of features such as high capacity, durability and low power for applications needing 24×7 access to data.1 Based on a proven platform for quality and reliability, the Travelstar drives help system designers, integrators and IT managers build and maintain their storage systems, achieving greater storage density in the same 2.5-inch footprint, while maximizing performance, and improving data integrity in “always-on” applications in lower-transaction environments.

“Our new Travelstar 5K750 and 7K750 offerings address the growing demand for high-capacity and low-power hard drives, which are at the heart of today’s notebooks, external storage devices, gaming consoles and other mobile computing applications,” said Brendan Collins, vice president of Product Marketing at Hitachi GST. “Couple this with our proven design platforms and broad 2.5-inch portfolio, and Hitachi GST continues to demonstrate its leadership in the 2.5-inch mobile hard drive market.”

Availability : The Travelstar 5K750 is currently shipping in volume. It will be available through Hitachi GST distribution channels by November 2010.

1 Designed for low duty cycle, non mission critical applications in PC, nearline and consumer electronics environments, which vary from application to application.

One GB is equal to one billion bytes, and one TB equals 1,000 GB (one trillion bytes). Actual capacity will vary depending on operating environment and formatting.
