Air circulation system
The disk enclosure (DE) is sealed to prevent dust and dirt from entering.  The disk enclosure
features a closed loop air circulation system that relies on the blower effect of the rotating
disk.  This system continuously circulates the air through the circulation filter to maintain the
cleanliness of the air within the disk enclosure.

Read/write circuit
The read/write circuit uses a LSI chip for the read/write preamplifier.  It improves data
reliability by preventing errors caused by external noise.
(7)
Controller circuit
The controller circuit consists of an LSI chip to improve reliability.  The high-speed
microprocessor unit (MPU) achieves a high-performance AT controller.
