8051A
The MiniScribe model 8051A
is
MiniScribe's solution for the new generation
of AT* compatible, portable
and
desk top
computer systems.
The 8051A
is
a 3
V2
-inch 42 MByte drive
with
an
on
-board
AT
controller. The
integration of the controller onto the dri
ve
increases system reliability
and
lowers
overall system cost.
A rotary voice coil
is
utilized
to
achieve a
fast 28 msec. average access time reliably.
An
embedded servo system
is
used
to
ma
ximize data
rel
iability. T
he
embedded
servo system significantly reduces
mispositioning due
to
thermal off track .
The 8051A features automatic park and
lockdown
at
a dedicated landing zone.
Like
all
MiniScribe products, the
8051
A
undergoes a rigorous testing
and
burn
in
process
to
insure the highest reliability.
The
Min
iScribe line of 3
V2
-inch
and
5
V4
-inch Winchester disk drives begin
at 12.75 MBytes
and
extend
to
