- Cheetah
The Cheetah family of disc drives offers the industry's highest random I/O transaction performance and astounding formatted data-transfer rates. These drives incorporate leading edge technology such as MR heads, a PRML channel and embedded servo. The Cheetah family provides unmatched performance for demanding application platforms such as workstations, network file servers and enterprise-wide servers. This family is the superior solution for nonlinear video editing and graphics-visualization requirements and transaction-intensive busines applications such as banking or reservation systems.
- The 1- and 1.6-inch-high Cheetah drives are available in formatted capacities of 4.55 and 9.1 Gbytes.
