Description
More Specification
The Seagate Baracuda 250GB 7.2K RPM SATA-II 16MB Hard Disk, model number ST3250410AS, is a high-capacity storage device designed for use in a variety of applications such as laptops, desktops, and servers. It has a capacity of 250 gigabytes (GB) and can store a large amount of data.
The drive has a rotation speed of 7.2K RPM, which is relatively slow compared to consumer-grade hard drives but is optimized for use in laptops, desktops, and servers. This means that the drive is designed to handle the constant read and write operations that are typical in these types of environments.
The drive uses the SATA (Serial ATA) interface, which is a standard interface for connecting storage devices to computers. This allows for faster data transfer rates and improved performance. Additionally, the drive uses the SATA-II interface, which is a version of the SATA interface.
The drive also features a large cache of 16MB, which is used to store frequently accessed data for faster access. This helps to improve overall performance by reducing the number of times the drive needs to access the data on the platters.
High-performance
The Seagate Baracuda 250GB 7.2K RPM SATA-II 16MB Hard Disk, model number ST3250410AS, is designed for use in a variety of applications such as laptops, desktops, and servers. It is optimized for use in environments where large storage capacity and reliability are needed.
The drive has a rotation speed of 7.2K RPM, which is relatively slow compared to consumer-grade hard drives, but is optimized for use in laptops, desktops, and servers. This means that the drive is designed to handle the constant read and write operations that are typical in these types of environments.
In terms of performance, the drive can transfer data at speeds of up to 3Gbps, which is considered fast for a drive of this capacity. Additionally, the drive can handle random read and write operations of up to 90 and 60 IOPS respectively. These are considered good numbers for a drive of this capacity and rotation speed. The drive also features a large cache of 16MB, which is used to store frequently accessed data for faster access. This helps to improve performance by reducing the number of times the drive needs to access the data on the platters.
Wide compatibility
The Seagate Baracuda 250GB 7.2K RPM SATA-II 16MB Hard Disk, model number ST3250410AS, is designed for use in a variety of applications such as laptops, desktops, and servers. It is compatible with most computers and servers that use the SATA-II interface and is engineered to work seamlessly with the operating systems of these systems.
It’s important to note that this drive is not compatible with systems that use the SAS, SCSI, SATA-III or SATA-I interface, which are different types of hard drive interfaces. Additionally, this drive is not compatible with systems that use the newer SATA-III interface, and will require an upgrade of the interface before it can be used.
In summary, the Seagate Baracuda 250GB 7.2K RPM SATA-II 16MB Hard Disk is compatible with most laptops, desktops, and servers that use the SATA-II interface, and is engineered to work seamlessly with the operating systems of these systems. However, it’s not compatible with systems that use the SAS, SCSI, SATA-III or SATA-I interface. It is designed to provide reliable and consistent performance in laptops, desktops, and servers, with large storage capacity and optimized for use in these types of systems.
