The Elite drive's 47 GB capacity continues Seagate's tradition of setting new industry records in storage capabilities. With the Elite 47, users are better able to manage the increasingly-growing volume of data generated by information-intensive applications. With its low-cost-per-gigabyte, the Elite 47 provides economically-priced storage for large central storage applications, professional video, and traditional near-line storage applications. The Elite 47 is a drive-of-choice for high-end configurations in systems which have to manipulate and maintain enormous databases. The Elite 47 reads and writes at speeds of up to 184 Mbits/second. The 5, 400-rpm drive utilizes UltraSCSI interface technology for quick throughput while the 800, 000-hour mean time between failure (MTBF) of the drive provides the high reliability for today's critical applications. These performance and reliability attributes, combined with its A/V Professional features, provide the movie and broadcast industries with extremely-economical, dependable online digital video storage.

With the Elite 47, a one-terabyte array can be developed with as few as 22 Elite 47 drives. With the fewer number of Elite drives required, as opposed to building the same terabyte-system using some of the most dependable 3.5 inch models, array reliability is more than doubled. Combining the Elite 47's capabilities for increased array reliability with the drive's attractive pricing, Seagate continues its tradition of providing tremendous value in mass storage.
