 5K2000
3.5-INCH HARD DISK DRIVES FOR VIDEO APPLICATIONS
A different spin for digital video
The CinemaStar™ 5K2000 hard drive provides a vast 2TB capacity and features innovative 
CoolSpin technology to deliver a new level of power efficiency and quiet operation for digital video 
applications. Key to CoolSpin technology is an optimization of motor speed to provide an ideal  
balance of performance, power utilization and acoustics. With customized features, capacity 
and cool operation, the 3.5-inch CinemaStar 5K2000 enables a new generation of digital video 
recorders and set-top boxes that store more hours of video, run more quietly and use less power.
Designed to support on-demand digital video solutions
An exceptional blend of audio/visual (AV) features fine tunes the CinemaStar 5K2000 for digital 
video storage needs. Hitachi SmoothStream™ technology supports the ATA-7 streaming 
command set, and SCT provides time-limited error recovery and thermal monitoring capabilities. 
IT data and video streams have different throughput demands, and AV-Zoning allows the 
definition of various error recovery procedures for predefined ranges of data blocks or zones 
to enable the system to effectively deliver critical data and time-sensitive video content from a 
single drive. Other features that tailor this drive for streaming video applications include Read 
Continuous mode, which helps manage error recovery for video streams, and Media Maintenance 
enhancements, to help prevent track wear-out from around-the-clock operation. 
Innovation for a more sustainable environment
The CinemaStar 5K2000 demonstrates Hitachi’s ecological leadership with its halogen-free 
design and power-efficient operation. Both of these features helped qualify the drive for the 
Hitachi EcoTrac classification, which identifies products that minimize environmental impact in 
the areas of product design, manufacturing, operation and disposal.
