High instantaneous ( burst) data-tr ansfer rate s (up to 100 Mbyte s per
•
second) using Ultra DMA mode 5
Giant magnetoresistive (GMR) recording heads and GPRML technol-
•
ogy, which provide the drives with increased areal density
State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms
•
Full-track multiple-sector transfer capability without local processor
•
intervention
Quiet operation
•
350 Gs nonoperating shock
•
The innovative, shock- ab so rb ing SeaS hi el d
