Maxtor DiamondMax 10 200GB IDE Drive

The Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6L200P0 is a 200GB desktop internal hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM with an 8MB cache. It connects via an IDE Ultra ATA133 interface and fits a standard 3.5-inch bay. A fluid dynamic bearing motor keeps acoustic levels low during operation.

Ideal for Legacy IDE Systems and Repairs

This drive suits technicians restoring or expanding older PCs that still use a parallel ATA bus. It also works as a direct replacement for a failed Maxtor DiamondMax 10 unit in existing arrays. Builders planning new systems with only serial ATA ports or needing capacities above 200GB should consider other options.

IDE Ultra ATA133 Interface Determines Compatibility

The single specification that decides fit is the IDE Ultra ATA133 connection. Motherboards or controllers must provide a native 40-pin ATA-7 channel or a compatible adapter. Without that interface the drive cannot communicate with the host system.

Questions about this item

What does the IDE Ultra ATA133 interface cap the maximum transfer rate at?

The IDE Ultra ATA133 interface caps the burst transfer rate at 133 MB/s, though sustained throughput will be lower and limited by the 7200 RPM mechanical speed and 8MB cache.

What physical space and mounting does this 3.5 inch drive require?

This 3.5 inch form factor drive needs a standard 3.5 inch drive bay or cage with bottom or side mounting holes and clearance for the IDE data connector and Molex power plug on the rear edge.

How is the drive installed, and what jumper step is often missed?

Connect the 40-pin IDE cable and Molex power, secure the drive with four screws, then set the rear jumper block to Master, Slave or Cable Select to match the channel configuration — skipping this causes the BIOS to not detect the 200GB volume.
