Seagate Exos 10E2400 1.2TB FastFormat SAS

The Seagate Exos 10E2400 1.2TB FastFormat SAS hard disk belongs among the high load internal HDDs for the NAS storage solution environment. The 2.5" format is designed primarily for laptops, portable databanks, and other similar devices. One of the key characteristics is undoubtedly the rotational speed. The 10000 RPM RPM delivers better speeds when working with multimedia and data. The total capacity of the hard drive is 1200 GB. The drive features a 256 MB memory cache. All the data communication between the Seagate hard disk and a computer or other device takes place through the SAS interface.

Other Hard Drive Features

Platter hard disks have a notably special construction. The enclosure conceals a mechanism that utilises moving platters, complete with disk read/write heads. These mechanical parts don't take shocks and impact well, but this weak point is well-compensated by an excellent price/storage capacity ratio. The important criterion that affects the speed of a HDD is the number of platter revolutions per minute, generally known as RPM. In case of the Seagate Exos 10E2400 1.2TB FastFormat SAS, you can look forward to 10000 RPM RPM. Data transmission and stability is also influenced by the disk buffer, usually called cache. The Seagate hard drive features a 256 MB cache that stores the last data inputs for their fast retrieval and reading.

Connecting the Seagate Hard Drive

If you want to mount the Seagate Exos 10E2400 1.2TB FastFormat SAS in the device of your choice, it must have a 2.5" slot. Data transfer takes place via the SAS interface with a speed of 12.0 Gbit/s. This solution is not particularly widespread, however.
