Maxtor = Seagate's Entry Level Brand

After its acquisition by Seagate, the future of Maxtor was not defined; but within the last few days it became clear that Maxtor will be the Seagate's brand for entry-level HDs.
Maxtor-labeled HDs will use Seagate’s technologies but will feature smaller cache as well as only 3 years warranty instead of 5 years. As a consequence, the price will be very aggressive, probably to cannibalized entry-level market (EOM and customers). For sure, EOM/integrators, such as Dell, will massively use such HDs to lower the price of their models.
