SEAGATE AT THE INTEL CHANNEL CONFERENCE FALL 2003: CHOOSING THE RIGHT HARD DRIVE (101703)

Presentations will help resellers select the best hard drives and interface technologies for their customers

MUNICH, Germany¡ª17 October 2003¡ª Seagate Technology (NYSE:STX) will participate in the Fall 2003 Intel Channel Conference (ICC), a series of training events that offers resellers, product integrators and service providers a first-hand look at the latest technological trends and helps them create the best possible solutions for their customers. Thousands of participants, including many members of the Seagate Partner Program, have taken advantage of this opportunity in each of the past several years. This year, Seagate's ICC presentation will focus on selecting the right hard drive for each application. As serial ATA solutions replace parallel ATA, resellers need to know more about this new technology.

Intel has been running ICC road shows across the globe twice a year since 2000. Intel works together with partners like Seagate to tailor the events to the specific needs and characteristics of each region. The ICC will make stops in nine cities in Germany, Austria and Switzerland throughout October and November 2003: Munich (Oct. 22), Filderstadt/Stuttgart (Oct. 23), Hanau/Frankfurt (Oct. 27), Lunen/Dortmund (Oct. 28), Hannover (Oct. 29), Wolfen/Leipzig (Oct. 30), Lausanne (Nov. 4), Zurich (Nov. 5) and Vienna (Nov. 11). In addition to its presentation, Seagate will also showcase its latest product range at its booth.
