The hard drive is mounted directly to the notebook frame, reducing the
transmission of shock to the hard drive. Uses three-axis digital motion
detection with intelligent sensitivity to help protect the hard drive during
normal use from shock and vibration. The digital accelerometer temporarily
halts all data transfer and parks the hard drive when abrupt motion is
detected.
