While Western Digital also uses 60 GB platters, Maxtor has already announced the introduction of its new DiamondMax Plus 9, a drive which will employ 80 GB platters. However, drives with a capacity of more than 160 GB are limited to the company's other product lines, which run at only 5400 rpm. This gives IBM and Western Digital a slight advantage.
