Overview of the Seagate ST3400832AS Hard Drive
The Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda is a hard disk drive designed for use in desktop computers. It is a 400GB (gigabyte) storage device that spins at 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM) and features an 8MB (megabyte) buffer.
Form Factor
The Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda has a 3.5-inch form factor, which is a common size for desktop hard drives. The 3.5-inch size refers to the diameter of the disk platters inside the drive. The 3.5-inch size is larger than the 2.5-inch size that is commonly used for laptop hard drives.
Capacity
The Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda has a storage capacity of 400GB, which is a measure of how much data the drive can store. 400GB is equivalent to 400 billion bytes of data. This capacity is suitable for a desktop computer and can hold a significant amount of data, including documents, photos, and videos.
Rotational Speed
The Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda spins at 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM), which is the speed at which the disk platters inside the drive rotate. A faster RPM means that the drive can read and write data more quickly. 7200 RPM is a common speed for desktop hard drives and provides a good balance between speed and price.
Buffer Size
The Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda has an 8MB (megabyte) buffer, which is a temporary storage area on the hard drive that is used to speed up data transfer. When data is read from the hard drive, it is first loaded into the buffer before being transferred to the computer's memory. Likewise, when data is written to the hard drive, it is first stored in the buffer before being written to the disk. A larger buffer can help improve the drive's performance, especially when dealing with large files.
Interface
The Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda uses the Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) interface, which is a standard interface used for connecting hard drives to computers. The SATA interface is faster than the older Parallel ATA (PATA) interface, and it allows for faster data transfer rates. The SATA interface also uses smaller and thinner cables, which makes it easier to install hard drives in desktop computers.
Overall, the Seagate ST3400832AS Barracuda is a 400GB hard disk drive designed for use in desktop computers. It has a 3.5-inch form factor, spins at 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM), features an 8MB (megabyte) buffer, and uses the Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) interface. These specifications make it a suitable choice for those looking for a reliable and high-capacity hard drive for their desktop computer.General Information about the Seagate ST3400832AS
