ATLAS 10K III 73.4GB U160 3.5IN 8MB 4.5MS 10000RPM 80PIN IN (PC)
The Atlas 10K III drive continues Maxtor’s performance leadership position. It sports a 10,000 RPM platter rotational speed, blazing-fast 4.5 millisecond (ms) seek time, a large 8 megabyte (MB) cache buffer, and a 55 megabyte-per-second MB/sec) peak sustained data throughput. These specs lead to one conclusion — the Atlas 10K III drive delivers the leading random I/O performance and sequential throughput required by our customer’s data-intensive applications. Per-platter data densities directly
influence customer value and drive reliability. The Atlas 10K III boasts the highest per-platter data density of 18.4 gigabytes (GB) per platter. This allows us to pack 18.4 GB, 36.7 GB and 73.4 GB offerings in a 1-inch form factor. The combination of performance and value makes the Atlas 10K III the optimum choice for Windows NT and UNIX enterprise and departmental servers, high-performance workstations, and storage subsystems. To ensure flawless and consistent performance, the Atlas 10K III drive features Maxtor’s breakthrough Shock Protection System III (SPS III). SPS III protects the drive from mistreatment during handling and integration. For systems integrators, SPS III results in fewer returns, lower total cost of ownership, and more satisfied customers. SPS but an example of Maxtor’s continuous commitment to quality — we confidently stand behind the Atlas 10K III with five-year warranty.
