Cheetah 36XL Product Manual, Rev. E 5 3.0 General description Cheetah 36XL drives combine giant magnetoresistive (GMR) heads, partial response/maximum likelihood (PRML) read channel electronics, embedded servo technology, and a wide SCSI Ultra160 interface to provide high performance, high capacity data storage for a variety of systems including engineering workstations, net- work servers, mainframes, and supercomputers. Ultra160 SCSI uses negotiated transfer rates. These transfer rates will occ
