Featuring an 9.5 millisecond (ms) seek time, a 257 megabit-per-second (Mb/sec) internal transfer rate, a 512 kilobyte (KB) buffer, and a 5,400 RPM rotational speed, Fireball lct hard drives deliver the performance needed for the most demanding home and small-business applications. To ensure optimum throughput, Fireball lct drives feature the Quantum-developed, high-performance Ultra ATA/66 interface, which virtually doubles the burst data rate, with enhanced data integrity via improved timing margins and Cyclical Redundancy Check (CRC). Furthermore, to meet a wide range of applications, from sub-$700 home PCs to everyday business systems, Fireball lct drives are available in the most popular capacity points—from 4.3 to 26.0 gigabytes (GB).
With Quantum’s new, second-generation Shock Protection System II (SPS II), Fireball lct drives take reliability and data integrity to an even higher level, with enhanced protection against both operating and non-operating shock. Along with providing enhanced protection against shock during handling and integration, SPS II now guards against kicks and jolts while the PC is running to reduce field failures. Like previous Fireball generations, the Fireball lct also uses the Quantum-pioneered Data Protection System (DPS), which verifies essential functions in seconds to eliminate costly and unnecessary drive returns. Together, these systems deliver higher reliability and improved data integrity, while reducing drive returns and cutting processing and replacement costs.
