Description:
Description :
The Maxtor Fireball™ 3 is the latest in Maxtors family of entry-level desktop disk drives that offer good performance at a reasonable price. The Fireball 3 provides storage, data rates and performance that is ideal for the first-time home PC user and the basic business desktop user. The Fireball line is widely used by leading PC manufacturers who recognize its value and reliability.
Combining Value and Performance for Entry-level Desktop Systems
The Maxtor Fireball ™ 3 drive is the industry’s first 40GB single-head/single-platter hard drive with an Ultra ATA/133 interface. Because it combines value and performance, this drive is an excellent choice for entry-level desktop systems and consumer electronics applications.
Delivering Reliability
The Maxtor Fireball 3 drive is the latest in the new family of Maxtor single-platter 5400 RPM hard drives designed for higher reliability. The drive’s inner diameter load/unload ramp locks the recording head into a protec-tive carrier to cradle the head during shipment and any other time the drive is not in operation. The Fireball 3 drive takes reliability and data integrity to a higher level with the Maxtor Shock Protection System ™ (SPS) and Data Protection System ™ (DPS). SPS and DPS give the user enhanced protection against both operating and non-operating shock and verify essential functions in seconds to minimize costly drive returns. These drives continue the Maxtor tradition of delivering high reliability with performance.
Quiet Operation
Maxtor Quiet Drive ™ Technology provides users with superior disk drive acoustics by reducing noise levels and improving sound quality. When your application calls for a cost-effective, high-performance storage solution, select the Fireball 3 series by Maxtor.
The Fireball 3 is a low-cost hard disk drive for low-end systems that are not oriented for any serious work. Its strong point is excellent read speed. - X-bit labs, "Maxtor Fireball 3 Hard Disk Drive Review", 11/07/02.
