GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This chapter summarizes the general functions and key features of the Maxtor
Atlas 15K family of hard disk drives, as well as the applicable standards and
regulations.
2.1
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Maxtor Atlas 15K hard disk drives are part of a family of high performance, 1-inch-
high hard disk drives manufactured to meet the highest product quality standards.
There are currently three models in the Maxtor Atlas 15K series, with capacities of
18.4, 36.7, and 73.4 gigabytes (GB). These hard disk drives use nonremovable,
2 1/2-inch diameter hard disks and are available with the following SCSI
configurations:
• Ultra320 SCSI, Ultra3, Ultra SCSI 68-pin Wide (16-bit)
• Ultra320 SCSI, Ultra3, Ultra SCSI 80-pin SCA-2 (16-bit)
Ultra320 Supports all legacy SCSI interfaces.
The Maxtor Atlas 15K hard disk drives feature an embedded SCSI drive controller
and use SCSI commands to optimize system performance. Because the drive
manages media defects and error recovery internally, these operations are fully
transparent to the user.
The innovative design of the Maxtor Atlas 15K hard disk drives enables Maxtor to
produce a family of low-cost, high-performance, high-reliability drives.
