Recommended: Drop the ST1480 into the "search" box at
http://www.seagate.com/
The -A versions are ATA (IDE) drives. This is the -N version.
You'll end up at:
http://www.seagate.com:80/support/disc/specs/st1480n.shtml
According to Seagate it holds 426 Mb (*) of data. My guess is that that's
where the 0424 comes from. (426/424 ~=~ 1Mb / 1e6)

(*) Disk Mb.
(#) Computer Mb = 2 ^20.
