IBM 160GB Serial ATA Hard Drive Features
The new Serial ATA interface offers data transfer speeds up to 50% faster than the current parallel ATA interface: - Transfer rates up to 150MB/sec. - High performance 7200rpm disk rotational speed
Improved cabling: - Eliminates the current 18 inch cable length limitation. - Thinner cables improve cable routing and airflow through the system.
Point-to-Point connections eliminate the need for Master/Slave settings on drives, simplifying installation.
Superior end-to-end error checking over Parallel ATA helps increase data integrity
Includes Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) which helps to predict and warn of some impending drive failures.
Ontrack Disk Manager included. This software prepares the drive for use, migrates data from older, slower drives, and overcomes legacy hardware, BIOS, and operating system. * GB equals 1,000,000,000 bytes when referring to storage capacity. Accessible capacity is less.
Reliable access to data - IBM helps verify compatibility through testing which is among the most rigorous in the industry
