Fujitsu (2,1),(3,2), (4,3),(5,2),(6,4) GB UATA 256kb 10ms

The Desktop 6 series offers higher capacities, greater reliability, Ultra DMA compatibility, and faster seek times. Fujitsu's technology advances permit 2.16GB of storage on a single platter. This per-platter capacity allows for models up to 6.48GB - a level usually reserved for high-end server and workstation drives. The Desktop 6 series also includes Magneto-Resistive (MR) head and Partial Response/Maximum Likelihood (PRML) technologies. These drives meet the growing storage demands of graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications.

Impressive Performance
Fujitsu's disk drives include Ultra Direct Memory Access (Ultra DMA) - the new IDE interface standard. UDMA doubles data transfer rates, dramatically reducing the time it takes to open, read, write, and save large files and applications when used with a UDMA compatible controller. These improvements give our desktop drives a distinct performance advantage with blazing seek times of under 10 milliseconds.

Increased Reliability
The desktop series drives have added features to increase reliability and data protection. Each drive has a Self Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) system that provides advanced warning of drive irregularities, giving users time to save files and prevent data loss. And Fujitsu's latest MR Head designs include stiction-free sliders further decreasing the chance of head crashes.

Absolutely No Excuses
Fujitsu products are designed to give you the highest performance and reliability with the least amount of hassle. To prove this, we offer our exclusive No Excuses three-year replacement warranty on the desktop disk drives. No Excuses may be the easiest and most comprehensive warranty service available. In the unlikely event that something goes wrong, we will replace the drive within two business days.
