The PH3400U-1I72 is a hard drive produced by Toshiba. It is a 4TB, 7200RPM SATA hard drive with a 6Gbps data transfer rate and a 128MB cache. In this article, we will explore the various features and specifications of this hard drive in detail.
CapacityThe PH3400U-1I72 Toshiba hard drive has a storage capacity of 4TB. This means that it can hold up to 4 terabytes of data, which is equivalent to 4,000 gigabytes or 4 million megabytes. This makes it an ideal choice for those who require a large amount of storage space for their data.
SpeedThe hard drive has a rotational speed of 7200RPM (revolutions per minute). This refers to the speed at which the hard drive's platters spin, which affects the overall speed of data access and transfer. A higher RPM generally translates to faster read and write speeds. In the case of the PH3400U-1I72, its 7200RPM speed makes it a fast hard drive, suitable for demanding applications such as gaming, video editing, and large file transfers.
InterfaceThe PH3400U-1I72 is a SATA hard drive with a 6Gbps data transfer rate. SATA, or Serial ATA, is a type of interface used to connect storage devices such as hard drives and solid-state drives to a computer's motherboard. The 6Gbps transfer rate means that data can be transferred at a maximum speed of 6 gigabits per second. This is faster than the older SATA II standard, which had a maximum transfer rate of 3Gbps.
CacheThe hard drive has a cache of 128MB. A cache is a small amount of high-speed memory that a hard drive uses to temporarily store frequently accessed data. The larger the cache, the faster the hard drive can access commonly used data, which can lead to improved performance in certain situations.
