Samsung VG33402A 3.4 GB IDE drive

This Samsung VG33402A is a 3.4 GB internal hard drive built to the 3.5 inch form factor. It connects through an IDE Ultra ATA100 interface, also referenced as ATA-6. The unit is supplied in new condition and intended for laptop internal storage.

Suits legacy IDE laptops only

This drive fits systems that have a 3.5 inch IDE bay and support the Ultra ATA100 standard. Builders working with newer laptops that lack an IDE connector or require a 2.5 inch form factor cannot use this unit. It also does not serve users who need higher capacity than 3.4 GB.

IDE Ultra ATA100 interface

The single specification that decides compatibility is the IDE Ultra ATA100 interface, also referenced as ATA-6. The host device must provide a matching IDE connector and support this transfer mode for the drive to function.

Questions about this item

Does the VG33402A ship with mounting screws or an IDE cable, or must I source them separately?

The drive is supplied in retail or OEM packaging that may vary; mounting hardware and cables are not included and must be obtained separately.

Should I pick the 3.4 GB VG33402A or look for a larger capacity model?

This model provides 3.4 GB of storage; if your system BIOS or operating system requires more space, a higher-capacity IDE drive will be needed.

What does the 100 MB/s Ultra ATA100 rating mean for actual throughput in my laptop?

The 100 MB/s figure is the interface burst limit; sustained transfer rates will be lower and depend on the drive’s internal mechanics and system overhead.
