3.0Gb SATA II, reliability and great performance
Maxtor creates a new standard with the introduction of the DiamondMax 10 drive. Its high capacity, enhanced reliability and great performance combine to make this the perfect drive
for home or office desktop users.
Interface choices
Offers the choice of parallel or serial interface including the latest 3.0Gb/s SATA II features and performance.
Serial ATA
The DiamondMax 10 drive incorporates the latest features of the Serial ATA interface, with data transfer rates and functions to accelerate system performance.
Parallel ATA*
DiamondMax 10 drive is also available with the industry’s fastest version of the parallel ATA interface. The Maxtor-developed Ultra ATA/133 interface maximizes performance potential by supporting data transfer rate up to 133MB/sec.
RoHS Compliant
Maxtor supports the EU directive
High Performance
DiamondMax 10 SATA drive supports native command queuing, which intelligently reorders read and write commands to improve performance.
Using larger buffers (8MB on 80GB to 200GB, 16MB on 250GB and 300GB), the DiamondMax 10 drive delivers industry-leading benchmarks and blazing performance.
Delivering reliability
The DiamondMax 10 drives deliver high reliability and data integrity using the Maxtor-developed Shock Protection System and Data Protection System to give the drive enhanced protection against operating and non-operating shock.
