Page 11 When a signal is released, it means the signal is not actively driven to any state. Some signals have bias circuitry that pull the signal to either a true or false state when no signal driver is actively asserting or negating the signal. These instances are noted under the description of the signal. Maxtor D540X-4D...

Page 13 2 T Q F W E V & G U E T K R V K Q P Maxtor hard disk drives are 1-inch high, 3.5-inch diameter random access storage devices which incorporate an on-board Ultra ATA/100 interface controller. High capacity is achieved by a balanced combination of high areal recording density and the latest data encoding and servo techniques.
