Seagate ATLAS 10K V 300GB U320 8D300L0 Fascicule

hard disk drive designed for 1.4 million hours MTTF*

The Atlas 10K V SCSI drive is an extremely reliable 10K RPM hard 

disk drive, designed for 1.4 million hours MTTF*, up to 300GB capacity,

as fast as 4.0ms average seek time and an 89MB/sec sustained data 

transfer rate. Maxtor’s intelligent drive technology, MaxAdapt

®

, allows the

Atlas 10K V drive to adapt to almost any system designs and conditions

for ease of integration and maintains peak performance.
