Low-Cost High-Performance Removable Storage
Avatar Shark drive
Avatar's Shark drive uses 2.5" removable disks called "HARDiskettes" that hold 250 MB each.
For probably less than you'd pay for a 100 MB Zip drive, the Shark offers 2.5 times the speed
(based on its average seek time) and 2.5 times the capacity. The Shark's most distinctive
feature is its portability, as reflected in its compact size and shock-resistant construction.
It excels as a low-cost removable storage solution for users of portable computers.
Compatible cartridges
