About this product
The MAXTOR DiamondMax 90576D4 is a 3.5-inch internal desktop hard drive with a modest 5.7GB storage capacity. It operates at 5400 RPM and includes a 256KB cache. The interface is Ultra ATA/66 (ATA-5), making it compatible with older IDE systems. Manufactured in Singapore, this Maxtor DiamondMax series drive is designed for legacy desktop PCs requiring a traditional HDD.
Our take
For those working with truly vintage systems, the MAXTOR DiamondMax 90576D4 is a period-appropriate internal desktop drive. Its 5.7GB capacity and 5400 RPM spin speed are definitely old-school, as is the 256KB cache, reflecting the technology of its time. The Ultra ATA/66 interface is crucial for compatibility with many older motherboards. While the price might seem high for the capacity by modern standards, it's about finding functional hardware for specific restoration projects. Just don't expect it to keep up with anything remotely modern.
