Drives like this were commonly installed in Compaq Deskpro, Presario, and Proliant desktop systems of that era, as well as in white-box and OEM desktop PCs using Intel Pentium II, Pentium III, and AMD Athlon platforms. Today, drives of this type are sought for restoring or maintaining vintage desktop computers, legacy embedded systems, and older industrial or scientific equipment that relied on IDE storage. They also serve as direct OEM replacements in Compaq systems that require the specific Compaq part number for compatibility. The Fireball lct line was known within the IDE market for its compact PCB layout and low power draw relative to higher-RPM contemporaries.
