The 3.5-inch form factor RDX drive system utilizes a unique removable media that is ruggedly 

designed for portability. RDX media consists of a mobile 2.5-inch hard disk drive (HDD) suspended 

in a highly durable cartridge. The same 2.5-inch drives are most often used in laptop computers 

due to their size and locking head feature.   With its protective, shock-proof cartridge design, the 

RDX cartridge passes drop tests in excess of 36 inches (91.4 cm) onto a tiled concrete floor 

without damage.  

Small-form-factor HDDs like the ones used in RDX have undergone significant advancements in 

the most recent generation to significantly improve their mechanical reliability and life.  Design 

features such as ramp-load heads and fluid dynamic bearings eliminate any concern about head-

media contact or disk sticking.  In fact these mobile HDDs now boast a mean time to failure of 

500,000 hours.
