The EcoGreen™ F3EG, has a higher capacity than the previous Samsung model F2EG. It features 2 Terra-Bites (TB) storage capacity, with 500 Giga-Bites (GB) per disk that is capable of storing up to 880 hours of DVD video or 500,000 or more songs in MP3 format. With increased recording density, the EcoGreen F3 drive saves electric-power by supporting a capacity up to 2TB with four disks.

Mr. Steve Han, Managing Director, Samsung Electronics-Pakistan said, “Storage-hungry multimedia professionals, gamers and home PC users continue to increase the amount of video, music, photo and other personal data they store and back-up. The F3EG delivers all the benefits of a low-power drive, yet features high performance and is environmentally friendly. The F3EG uses Samsung’s EcoTriangleTM technology to provide eco-friendly components, low-power and low-noise.
