StorageReview.com Headline NewsHere it is, the next set of drives to get. Wow, 3-year warranties and up to 250GB. Drool on!
The MaxLine Plus II adds a third platter to the firm?s 7200 RPM design to reach capacities up to 250 GB. The Plus also incorporates an 8-meg cache. Both will be available in ATA-133 or Serial ATA interfaces and will feature optional FDB motors.
Perhaps most importantly, Maxtor certifies these drives for ?24/7? operation, claiming a 1,000,000 mean-time-to failure (significantly higher than other ATA drives) and retaining 3-year warranties on the units.
