Industry-leading Capacity, Performance,
And Reliability for Midline Applications
MaXLine drives provide large-capacity ATA disk storage so reliable,
fast and cost-effective, it leaves traditional tape and optical solutions
in the dust. At prices about the same as tape and optical, but with far
superior capacity and access times, ATA drives are ideal for 24x7-duty
situations where you may not need stored data all the time, but when
you do need it, you need it now.
At 250GB and 300GB, MaXLine ATA drives provide greater storage
capacity than regular ATA drives, and they offer the added benefit
of ultra-reliability. For midline and other low-I/O secondary storage
applications, they’re rated at better than 1 million
hours MTTF. Maxtor stands behind MaXLine drives with a 5-year
limited warranty.
Proven technology
These drives are already proven as
the heart of network attached storage
systems from major original equip-
ment manufacturers. And data
availability can be further enhanced
with RAID configurations. These
3.5-inch drives are also easy to
integrate into existing storage
systems, with complementary
hardware controller and software
solutions available that emulate
tape-based libraries.
Active Recall Archiving
Consider the value MaXLine drives
add by increasing the speed and
reliability of data retrieval and restora-
tion. Time is money, and the ability
to find archived data quickly, recover
it immediately and get back on line,
is critical to productivity. Your cus-
tomers have to accomplish more
with less these days—in less time.
MaXLine drives let them do just that.
