Does Advantech recommend any HDD brand for Panel PCs?
Solution:
Ans: Yes! According to our experiences and tests done by our quality assurance lab, we highly recommend the IBM 2.1G and 3.2G 2.5" HDD to our customers. The IBM 2.5" HDD is extremely reliable and immune to environmental vibration and shocks. The second HDD option will be Fujitsu 2.1 G 2.5" HDD. It also performs well in our environmental tests. Two name brand 2.5" HDDs should be avoid. Hitachi 1.1G 2.5" HDD has very bad reputation for high yield rate among our customers. Toshiba 2.1G 2.5" HDD failed in our lab's vibration and shock tests. The test reports for IBM and Fujitsu 2.5" HDD are upon request.
