Imation Launches Faster, Sleeker SuperDisk Drives at PC Expo

NEW YORK --- (June 21, 1999) Imation Corp. (NYSE:IMN) today announced
four new and improved SuperDisk drives offering faster performance,
lightweight design, and simple installation - including a new
SuperDisk USB Drive for PC and Macintosh.

While previous-generation SuperDisk drives from Imation read data
about 10 times faster than a floppy drive, the new and improved
SuperDisk drives read much faster -- up to 27 times faster -- than a
floppy. The new drives are capable of handling multimedia
applications such as video and audio recording while retaining the
reliability and compatibility advantages that have made SuperDisk
technology the leading replacement for the floppy. Like all SuperDisk
drives, the new products are fully read and write compatible with
floppies and 120 MB SuperDisk diskettes.

"Storage demands keep accelerating, so it's no surprise that
SuperDisk continues to gain momentum," said Steve Ladwig, president,
Imation Data Storage and Information Management. "Imation's family of
SuperDisk drives presents our customers with a better array of
storage options than ever before. With SuperDisk, there's virtually
no limit to the amount of images, photos, video and audio files users
can share and store - easily, efficiently and inexpensively - with
any kind of computer."
