Seagate 7200 RPM User Manual

Maximize Your System’s Performance

Designed for users who demand maximum

performance and storage capacity, the Maxtor

7200 RPM hard drive can improve system

performance by as much as 33% over an

equivalent 5400 RPM drive in system-level tests. This means faster

application launching, game playing, and file saving. The speed of

a hard drive can have as big an impact on system performance as the

speed of the processor—making the Maxtor 7200 RPM hard drive ideal

for speed-intensive applications like digital video editing, database

searches, and the latest games. These are the same award-winning

drives being used by many of the world's top PC makers. And the

Maxtor 7200 hard drive kit includes the only 7200 RPM drive to offer

an Ultra ATA/133 interface for a data transfer rate of up to 133MB/sec.

Whether your storage needs are for creative work, business

applications, or fun, Maxtor has the drive for you
