What is "Q" in Maxtor D740X Q

[DouglasW]

I am thinking of buying a Maxtor D740X. Some vendors list it both with an without a Q (as in D740X Q), usually for the same price. Does anyone know what the Q means?

I believe it means its a rebadged Quantum Fireball.

Maxtor took over Quantum's Hard Drive line.
