Atlas 10K III family of hard disk drives, as well as the applicable standards and
regulations.
Maxtor Atlas 10K III hard disk drives are part of a family of high performance, 1-inch-
high hard disk drives manufactured to meet the highest product quality standards.
There are currently three models in the Maxtor Atlas 10K III series with capacities of
18.4, 36.7, and 73.4 gigabytes (GB). These hard disk drives use nonremovable,
3 1/2-inch hard disks and are available with the following SCSI configurations:

3 1/2-inch hard disks and are available with the following SCSI configurations:
• Ultra160 SCSI, Ultra2, Ultra SCSI 68-pin Wide (16-bit)
• Ultra160 SCSI, Ultra2, Ultra SCSI 80-pin SCA-2 (16-bit)
• Ultra320 SCSI, Ultra2, Ultra SCSI 68-pin Wide (16-bit)
• Ultra320 SCSI, Ultra2, Ultra SCSI 80-pin SCA-2 (16-bit)
The Maxtor Atlas 10K III hard disk drives feature an embedded SCSI drive controller
and use SCSI commands to optimize system performance. Because the drive manages
media defects and error recovery internally, these operations are fully transparent to
the user.
