Overview
This HTS category, 8471.70.30.00, is designated for "Other" magnetic disk drive units used in automatic data processing systems. It encompasses magnetic disk drives that do not fit into the more specific subcategories, particularly those designed for disks exceeding 21 cm in diameter. The key characteristic is their function as a storage unit within a larger data processing system.
It is important to distinguish this category from its siblings. HTS 8471.70.10.00 covers magnetic disk drive units that are either incomplete (without read-write units assembled) or are the read-write units themselves when entered separately. HTS 8471.70.20.00 is reserved for units that are specifically designed for physical incorporation into automatic data processing machines or their constituent units. This category, 8471.70.30.00, therefore captures those magnetic disk drives for larger disks that are not otherwise specified within these narrower classifications.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. The classification of a magnetic disk drive unit under this heading will depend on its physical specifications, particularly the diameter of the disks it is designed to handle, and its exclusion from the more precisely defined sibling categories. Examples might include older or specialized large-format magnetic disk drives for industrial or legacy systems.
