30 GB IDE drive for legacy desktops
This Maxtor DiamondMax Plus D740X is a new 3.5 inch internal hard drive with a 30 GB capacity. It spins at 7200 RPM and uses an IDE Ultra ATA133 interface with a 2 MB cache. The bare drive suits owners of older desktop systems that still require a parallel ATA storage device.
Suits vintage PCs; not for larger storage needs
The drive fits machines built around the IDE Ultra ATA133 standard and benefits from a fluid dynamic bearing motor for quiet operation. Its low profile aids airflow inside compact cases. Builders who need more capacity or a modern serial interface should look at other options.
IDE Ultra ATA133 interface decides compatibility
The single specification that determines whether this is the correct part is the IDE Ultra ATA133 interface. Only motherboards or controllers with a matching 40-pin parallel ATA connector can use this drive.

Domande su questo articolo
Can I use this 30GB 7200 RPM IDE drive alongside an existing ATA133 drive on the same cable?
Yes, both drives share the IDE Ultra ATA133 interface, so they can run on the same channel; set one as master and the other as slave via jumpers.
How do I confirm the DiamondMax Plus D740X is running at its rated speed after installation?
Check BIOS or OS disk utilities for 7200 RPM and 2MB cache detection, and listen for the quiet FDB motor during seeks.
The box says Bare Drive — what cables or brackets must I supply myself?
You need a 40-pin IDE ribbon cable, a 4-pin Molex power lead, and 3.5-inch mounting screws; none are included.
