Caviar 1.6 GB Hard Drive
* Blazing, Ultra High-Performance Hard Drive This drive is 50% faster
than competitive 3600 RPM drives. The AC31600 builds upon the proven
electronic architecture of previous award-winning Caviar drives. With
a 5200 RPM speed, a new head design, increased areal density, and
improved mechanical platform, it's the highest performance Caviar
drive yet!
An increase in spindle speed had a dramatic effect on rotational
latency which is a major determinate of hard drive performance
* First to Market Once again, Western Digital is first to market with
the introduction of this 3.5-inch, 1.6 GB, three-platter Enhanced IDE
drive.
* Ready for Multimedia and Windows 95 This new drive combines high
capacity, high data transfer rates, a 5200 RPM spindle speed, and 128
KB cache buffer - all the right ingredients for full-screen, full
color, motion video on your PC.
* Exceptional Quality and Reliability A three-year warranty and a MTBF
of 300,000 hours (or 34 years) of trouble-free operation.
* Supports 16.6 MB/s Mode 4 PIO Data Transfer Rates The use of Mode 4
and Mode 2 multiword DMA data transfer capabilities at 16.6 MB/s
results in maximum disk performance under VESA and PCI local bus
environments. The Caviar AC31600 provides you with optimized
performance by combining high RPM, low seek times, high areal density,
128 KB cache buffer, and 16.6 MB/s data transfer rates. It is the
combination of all of these performance features that gives this drive
a decisive edge over all of the competition.
