PC World: “As the latest salvo in the spring storage wars, Maxtor is announcing two extra-large hard drives for the storage deprived:
the 80GB DiamondMax D540X and the 100GB DiamondMax 536DX.

The 80GB DiamondMax D540X uses Maxtor’s latest technology tweaks to double the data storage of a two-sided drive
platter from 20GB to 40GB. The new DiamondMax 536DX drive has more traditional platter capacities, but it uses three
platters for a whopping 100GB of storage capacity–making it the largest desktop drive on the market.”
