Samsung T166 perpendicular?

[JugLove]

Is the T166 using Perpendicular Magnetic Recording?

Pros:
They have publically announced it.
The transfer speeds suggest it.

Cons:
It is not mentioned in any review.
It isn't mentioned in Samsungs product listing.

Does anyone know for sure if it is or not?

You need to add a choice for "beat's me!" 8)

Where's the " I don't know" and "I don't care" choice?

I don't know. And i can't find it anywhere. And why the heck should it matter?

There is no "I don't know" choice, since that choice does not exist!

It either is a perpendicular magnetic recording drive or not.
It is important because besides the fact that I like nearly silent drives, which qualifies this drive, I also like to embrace new technology.
It is also important because I'd really like to know.

What I don't like to know, at least not in the poll, is how many that don't know. Although, feel free to post your answers if that is the case.

Don't forget to hug in the Internet traffic,

I don't know, but I did read somewhere that it was planned to be PMR, but infact it is not.
