There is very similar magnetic technology in eddy current drives, isn there?
There are significant differences between old technology eddy current drives and new technology MagnaDrive ASDs. An eddy current drive is electromagnetic; it consumes electrical energy as it continuously energizes its electromagnets. MagnaDrive is mechanical, using rare earth magnets. The MagnaDrive is about 10-15% more efficient throughout its operating range and its disconnected technology results in vibration reduction.
