At 7mm thick it fits slim notebooks that can't take a 9.5mm or 15mm drive, and at 90g it adds almost nothing to the weight. Power draw is low (about 1.6W reading and 0.45W idle), which helps battery life. Seagate's Multi-Tier Caching Technology uses the drive's cache layers to smooth out bursts of writes, and it's also a sensible drive for a home-built USB enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKnow what you're buying\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a 5400 RPM drive using shingled magnetic recording (SMR), which is fine for storing photos, documents and a game library, but it's much slower than any SSD for booting Windows or loading apps. If it's going to be your only drive, a SATA SSD will feel far quicker. SMR also makes it a poor choice for a NAS or RAID array, where rebuilds can be slow; buy IronWolf for that. If you need more space in the same 2.5\" size, the 15mm BarraCuda goes up to 5TB, but check your laptop takes 15mm drives first. Most don't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlim 7mm form factor for thin laptops and small systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-Tier Caching Technology for faster write handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 140MB\/s data rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow power draw and QuietStep ramp load for quiet operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalogen-free and RoHS compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: Seagate BarraCuda 2.5\" 1TB (ST1000LM048)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity: 1TB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm factor: 2.5\", 7mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterface: SATA 6Gb\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpindle speed: 5400 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCache: 128MB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eData transfer rate: Up to 140MB\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecording technology: SMR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBytes per sector (logical \/ physical): 512 \/ 4096\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoad\/unload cycles: 600,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNonrecoverable read errors: 1 per 10E14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStartup current (+5V): 1.0A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAverage read \/ write power: 1.6W \/ 1.7W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdle power: 0.45W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating temperature: 0°C to 60°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShock (operating 2ms \/ non-operating 1ms): 400 \/ 1000 Gs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcoustics (idle \/ seek): 2.0 \/ 2.2 bels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 7.0 x 69.85 x 100.35mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 90g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 2 Year Limited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Seagate BarraCuda 1TB 2.5\" hard drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Seagate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeagate has made hard drives since 1979, and BarraCuda is its mainstream drive range for PCs and laptops, with free DiscWizard software for cloning and backup.
