Product Overview
Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) are the most common type of storage device used in personal computers and laptops. They are responsible for storing all of the data on a computer, including the operating system, programs, documents, pictures, videos, and more. The ST31500541AS is a specific model of HDD manufactured by Seagate, which is designed for internal use in desktop computers and workstations.
Specifications
The ST31500541AS has a storage capacity of 1.5 terabytes (TB), which is equivalent to 1,500 gigabytes (GB). This is a significant amount of storage space and is more than enough for the average computer user. The drive operates at a rotational speed of 5,900 revolutions per minute (RPM), which means it can read and write data relatively quickly.
The drive connects to the computer's motherboard using a Serial ATA (SATA) interface, which allows for data transfer speeds of up to 3 gigabits per second (Gbps). This is the maximum speed that the interface can handle, and it is sufficient for most users. However, if you require faster data transfer speeds, you may want to consider a Solid State Drive (SSD) instead.
The drive has a 32 megabyte (MB) cache, which is a small amount of high-speed memory that is used to temporarily store frequently accessed data. This allows the drive to access frequently used data quickly, which can improve overall system performance.
Physical Characteristics
The ST31500541AS is a 3.5-inch form factor drive, which means it is designed to fit inside a desktop computer or workstation. It measures 147mm x 101.6mm x 26.1mm (L x W x H) and weighs approximately 690 grams. The drive is relatively lightweight, which makes it easy to install and remove from the computer.
Power Consumption
The drive consumes approximately 6.8 watts of power when operating, which is a relatively low amount of power compared to other HDDs on the market. When the drive is idle, it consumes only 2.7 watts of power, which makes it an energy-efficient option for those who are concerned about their electricity bill or the environment.
Compatibility
The ST31500541AS is compatible with most modern desktop computers and workstations that have a SATA interface. It is important to note that the drive requires a power supply of 12 volts and 2 amperes (A) to operate. If your computer's power supply does not meet these requirements, you may need to upgrade it before installing the drive.
Reliability
The ST31500541AS has a mean time between failures (MTBF) rating of 1.2 million hours. This means that the drive is expected to function correctly for 1.2 million hours before it fails. While this is an impressive rating, it is important to note that it is not a guarantee that the drive will last this long. The actual lifespan of the drive can vary depending on a variety of factors, including usage, temperature, and environmental conditions.
In summary, the ST31500541AS is a high-capacity HDD manufactured by Seagate that is designed for internal use in desktop computers and workstations. It has a storage capacity of 1.5TB, a rotational speed of 5.9K RPM, and a SATA interface that allows for data transfer speeds of up to 3Gbps. The drive has a 32MB cache, is lightweight, consumes low power, and is compatible with most modern desktop computers and workstations. While the drive has a high MTBF rating, its actual lifespan can vary depending on usage and environmental conditions.
