Product Description

Maxtor DiamondMax™ Plus 5120 AT disk drives are 1-inch high, 3.5-inch diameter random access storage devices which incorporate an on-board ATA-4/Ultra DMA controller. High capacity is achieved by a balanced combination of high areal recording density and the latest data encoding and servo techniques.

Maxtor's latest advancements in electronic packaging and integration methods have lowered the drive's power consumption and increased its reliability. Advanced giant magneto-resistive read/write heads, an state-of-the-art head/disk assembly using an integrated motor/spindle design allow up to four disks in a 3.5-inch package.

Exceptionally high data transfer rates, 7,200 RPM spin speed and 9.0 ms access times make these performance series disk drives especially well-suited to high-end desktop and server applications.
