IBM DJNA-352030 hard drive specifications
IBM Deskstar 25GP - hard drive - 20.3 MB - ATA-66
As the company that pioneered disk drive technology, IBM once again is setting new standards for today's data storage technology by designing innovative hard disk drives that help meet the evolving requirements of high-performance desktop users. The IBM Deskstar 25GP provides the industry's highest storage capacities for desktop systems. The fast speeds and high capacities translate directly into higher quality video pictures, superior CAD/CAM performance, and significantly faster turnaround for the emerging wave of data-intensive multimedia applications. With the IBM Deskstar 25GP, IBM provides the capacity and performance to handle a wide range of advanced desktop applications. The IBM Deskstar 25GP offers the industry's largest capacity in an ATA interface drive. With a maximum capacity, the IBM Deskstar 25GP packs significant amounts of data onto a one-inch high disk drive. These drives use IBM giant magnetoresistive (GMR) advanced head technology, which enables increased areal density. S.M.A.R.T. 3 improves reliability as it provides background reassignment of defective sectors. Further circuit integration reduces power requirements and increases reliability. No-ID sector formatting increases capacity by helping to eliminate the overhead caused by duplicate storage of data sector ID fields. An Ultra ATA/66 interface provides superior data performance. In addition, partial response maximum likelihood (PRML) digital data channel increases media-to-buffer and buffer transfer rates.
