Product Overview
The ST3500641AS Barracuda 500GB Hard Disk Drive (HDD) is a computer storage device made by Seagate Technology, one of the leading manufacturers of HDDs.
Storage Capacity
The ST3500641AS Barracuda HDD has a storage capacity of 500GB, which is equivalent to 500 billion bytes of data. This is a significant amount of storage space that can be used to store a large number of files, including documents, pictures, music, and videos. The storage capacity is sufficient for most personal and professional needs and is suitable for use in desktop computers, workstations, and servers.
Rotational Speed
The Barracuda HDD has a rotational speed of 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM). This means that the disk inside the HDD spins at a speed of 7200 RPM, which is relatively fast and ensures that data can be accessed and transferred quickly. Higher RPMs generally result in faster data transfer rates, making the HDD ideal for use in systems that require high-speed data access, such as gaming PCs, video editing workstations, and servers.
Interface
The Barracuda HDD uses the Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) interface. SATA is a widely used interface for connecting storage devices to a computer. It provides fast data transfer rates and is compatible with most modern motherboards. The SATA interface also supports hot-swapping, which means that the HDD can be replaced or added to a system while it is running, without the need to shut down the system.
Buffer Size
The Barracuda HDD has a buffer size of 16MB. The buffer, also known as cache, is a small amount of high-speed memory that is used to temporarily store frequently accessed data. A larger buffer size can result in faster data access and transfer rates, as more data can be stored in the cache. The 16MB buffer size of the Barracuda HDD is sufficient for most personal and professional needs.
Form Factor
The Barracuda HDD has a form factor of 3.5 inches, which is the most common size for desktop HDDs. The form factor refers to the physical size and shape of the HDD. The 3.5-inch form factor is suitable for use in desktop computers, workstations, and servers. The Barracuda HDD is also classified as a low-profile drive, with a height of 1.0 inch. This means that it is thinner than standard 3.5-inch HDDs, making it ideal for use in systems with limited space, such as small form factor desktops and media centers.
In Summary, the ST3500641AS Barracuda 500GB HDD is a high-quality storage device made by Seagate Technology. Its storage capacity, rotational speed, interface, buffer size, and form factor make it suitable for use in a wide range of applications, from personal computers to servers. Its fast data transfer rates and hot-swapping capability ensure that data can be accessed and transferred quickly, while its low-profile form factor makes it ideal for use in space-constrained systems.
