KEY ADVANTAGES

CHEETAH 36ES

Capacities in the sweet spot of the market Up to 320 Mbyte/sec transfer rate. Includes packetization and QAS. Fully compatible with Ultra 160

Cheetah 36ES is the 10K entry SCSI solution.

Designed with Seagate’s Advanced Multidrive System(SAMS), a set of designs that reduces the effects of rotational vibration generated from multiple drives operating simultaneously in a cabinet, keeping performance on track while competitor drive performance suffers. Sixth-generation Cheetah— 56 percent faster transfer rate over previous generation.

Areal density is maximized with Seagate’s Zero Acceleration Path enhanced track spacing, allowing a lower disc and head count.

3D Defense System: No one does more to protect your drive.

3D Data Defense; ECC, Safe Sparing, Continuous Background Defect Scanning 3D Diagnostics; Enhanced S.M.A.R.T. preempts errors. Web-based tools and Sea Tools diagnostic software helps customers identify problem sources.

Seagate’s sound barrier technology ensures whisper-quiet acoustics. Temperature Sensor warns host when the temperature exceeds limits. 3D Drive Defense’s SeaShell brings the non-op shock to over 1,000 G’s. G-Force protection increases drive ruggedness and reliablity

Seagate’s experience with the sixth generation Cheetah family of products ensures low power requirements

Seagate’s Customer Service; rated above average to excellent by 95

percent of the 2,000 customers surveyed who used Seagate’s service.

> Seagate’s team brings superior breadth and depth of experience to you. > In the complex world of storage design, support is often the deciding factor.
