Quantum Quiet Drive Technology
Quantum developed its exclusive
Quiet Drive Technology (QDT) to
provide users with the lowest possible
disk drive acoustics and best overall
sound quality from their drives. Through
innovative technology, QDT reduces
the drive noise by improving the sound
quality while at the same time reducing
the sound measurement.
Delivering Reliability
Like previous Fireball generations, the
Fireball lct20 takes reliability and data
integrity to an even higher level with
Quantum’s Shock Protection System II
(SPS II) and Data Protection System
(DPS). SPS II gives the user enhanced
protection against both operating and
non-operating shock. DPS verifies
essential functions in seconds to eliminate
costly and unnecessary drive returns.
Together, these systems deliver higher
reliability and improved data integrity,
while reducing drive returns and cutting
processing and replacement costs.
