When compared to the 250GB model of the same series, the new 320GB drive is superior in data transfer rates due to the areal density improvement and acoustic noise during seeking has also been lowered by 4dB to just 19dB. Energy consumption is also said to be around 19% more efficient than the previous generation 1.8-inch drives from Toshiba.
