Seagate Technology announced today that OpenTech, one of Korea's leading Set-Top Box manufacturers, has selected Seagate consumer electronics (CE) disc drives for its first consumer hard disc-based Personal Video Recorder (PVR). The built-in Seagate hard drive provides the capacity and performance that enables advanced features such as customized programming, simultaneous video streaming, fast-forward, rewind, record, store and playback TV entertainment, and Internet access to video and audio broadcasting, gaming and email.

"The integration of a hard drive into our PVRs is a first for OpenTech, and we demand the best storage technology available," said SaeJin Han, general manager of Procurement at OpenTech.

Featuring the Company's exclusive "sound barrier technology" (SBT), Seagate products are the world's quietest hard drives for mainstream desktop computers and Personal Video Recorders. Seagate's disc drives offer best-in-class reliability for PC and CE applications, and ship with Seagate's exclusive 3D Defense System(tm) to lead the industry in ruggedness and data protection.
