Maxtor Ships 500GB Hard Drive

Maxtor announced they are shipping their new 500GB 7200RPM hard drives in the fall of 2005.

The new 3.5-inch 500GB hard drives will feature a spindle speed of 7200RPM and will be available in SATA and ATA 133 interfaces. The 500GB hard drives will also be RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant.

“Maxtor continues to focus on storage solutions tailored for specific market needs,” said David Reinsel, director of storage research at IDC. “The Maxtor 500GB hard drive underscores the company’s emphasis on differentiation across all of its product lines, and reflects competitiveness within market segments demanding the highest capacity drives.”

No price has been set, but the new drives are scheduled to ship in the fall of this year.
