Desktop Hard Drive Products
 
The hard drives we design for the desktop PC market currently consist of 3.5-inch form factor products with capacities ranging from 40 GB to 1 TB. These products utilize either the EIDE or SATA interfaces, providing high performance while retaining ease of use and overall low cost of connection. The type of EIDE interface currently used in our hard drives is ATA/100, which signifies a burst data transfer rate of 100 megabytes per second, which is the maximum specified data transition that can be sustained under ideal conditions. The SATA interface available in the majority of our hard drives enable burst transfer rates of up to 300 megabytes per second.
