2.1 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Maxtor’s Quickview 40 PATA 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.
These hard disk drives are non-removable, 3 1/2-inch hard disks and are available
with the PATA interface.
The Quickview 40 20/30/40GB PATA hard disk drives feature an embedded hard
disk drive controller, and use PATA 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 Quickview 40 hard disk drives incorporate leading edge
technologies such as Ultra ATA/133, Advanced Cache Management, Shock
Protection System
