	Maxtor Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Maxtor Corporation NYSE: MXO is one of the world's largest manufacturers of computer hard disks.
		Maxtor, in recent years, like many other hard drive makers, has been expanding into the external hard disk market, such as the Maxtor One-Touch II personal hard drive that is marketed to be convenient external storage for the home user.
		Maxtor had initially made efforts to step into the 2.5" (notebook format) hard disk market, but in the beginning of 2005, new management made the surprising decision to discontinue development in this field.

	Maxtor to axe more US jobs \| The Register
		Maxtor's recently announced decision to abandon its 2.5in notebook hard drive project helped keep the company in the red, to the tune of $70m (28 cents a share) during its fourth quarter.
		Maxtor reported a variety of one-off charges, including $25m toward the cost of cancelling the 2.5in drive scheme, but some exceptional gains too.
		However, Maxtor's Q4 operating loss was $63.01m, worse than the $58.3m it posted in Q3, in spite of improving gross margins and rising ASPs.

	TheTechLounge Articles: Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 200 GB Hard Drive
		I am not sure how Maxtor came to the conclusion that you needed Windows XP sp1 or Windows 2000 sp3 to use all 200 GB, but apparently they are wrong.
		Maxtor gave me this information: "The only way they users can use the entire 200 GB of a hard disk that is connected to the motherboard's ATA bus in Windows 98 and ME is if they have one of the specified Intel chipsets and are running the Intel application accelerator.
		Maxtor has had a reputation for producing some very hot running drives, and I am pleased to say that this drive isn't overly hot.

		Maxtor has since informed me that shipping units of the drive will feature 1 meg of buffer.
		Maxtor explains that they plan to convert to ATA-66 interfaces when motherboards with chipsets featuring ATA-66 operation become widely available (the current Intel BX chipset, for example, does not).

	Maxtor Atlas 15K 8C073L0 & 10K IV 8B073L0 SCSI HDDs Review
		Maxtor extended the Atlas 10K series with the fourth line of SCSI drives and released the first line of the Atlas 15K series.
		Maxtor performs better at writing, especially at heavy loads - the 15K Maxtor goes on a par with the 10K Seagate.
		It seems that such underperformance of Maxtor's drives in the synthetic Intel IOMeter is on account of the firmware, because they look very good in the low-level tests, for example, for access time and linear read/write speed.

		A lot of people complained when Maxtor and some other companies dropped their hard drive warranties to one year, but not every drive suffers from the same short warranty.
		Here is a copy from of Maxtor’s warranty, and we can see their top performance drives like the 200GB we have still has a 3 year warranty.
		We made sure we had SP1 installed on XP and installed a patch from Maxtor to make sure the drive size over 137GB would be seen.

		In this third-gen unit, Maxtor integrates three platters to yield a flagship 300 GB capacity as well as a slightly smaller 250 GB unit.
		As a result, Maxtor admits that this figure is not directly comparable to the 1.2 million hour figure quoted for devices such as Seagate's Cheetah series or its own Atlas line.
		While our evaluation sample is prominently marked "Promotional Sample," Maxtor reaffirms that the unit is "feature complete" and representative of the drives slated to enter the channel in the third quarter of this year.

		Today, I will be taking a look at Maxtor’s DiamondMax 10 which sports a 16MB cache buffer, a 7200 RPM spindle, Native Command Queuing (NCQ) and capacities of up to 300GB.

	Accelerate Your Mac! - Review of Maxtor's 40GB DiamondMax Plus IDE Hard Drive
		Maxtor ATA/100 series drives have a write verify feature that is reportedly disabled after 10 power cycles.
		With the highest density of any Maxtor drive to date (perhaps any IDE drive) I expected record-breaking performance and I was not disappointed.
		Since the performance of a hard drive is always slower as the drive fills with data (the outer tracks are the fastest), each of the 3 drives (the Maxtor 40GB, Maxtor 27GB and original Quantum EX 6GB) was erased in the Finder (Mac OS Extended format) before each test.

	modtown - review - maxtor diamondmax plus 9 200GB hard drive - if it ain't broke - mod it!
		The Fluid Dynamics Bearing Motor is a fairly new technology that Maxtor has incorporated in their DiamondMax Plus 9 hard drives.
		This technology allows the drive to operate with a very low sound output - which makes the hard drive very much silent in operation, a great bonus for users who are concerned about sounds levels in their computer setup.
		Maxtor states that the drive has an average access time of less than or equal to 9.3ms.

	Macworld: Review: Maxtor Personal Storage 5000

		As the industry introduces faster and higher capacity hard drives, work must be done in parallel to speed up the interface between the drive and the host computer in order to avoid a data bottleneck from the drive outperforming the interface.
		For example, the new Ultra ATA/133 interface, which Maxtor is branding as ``Fast Drives,'' is ideal for transferring large amounts of data such as digital video.
		Maxtor has a reputation as a proven market leader built by providing consistent high- quality products, and service and support for its customers.
