In 2003, Toshiba Storage Device Division launched the GAX series of 2.5-inch hard disk drives. The three drive 
models include: MK4026GAX, MK6026GAX and MK8026GAX. Due to its 40GB per platter technology in a 2.5-inch 
form factor , the GAX models are super slim and lightweight.  The 40GB, 60GB and 80GB provide a diverse range of 
storage capacity for a wide range of mobile applications; from notebooks to consumer electronics as well as industrial 
and automotive applications.  Furthermore, due to excellent specifications, Toshiba hard disk drives are the ideal 
storage devices for most of the world's leading manufacturers.
