The Seagate Advantage

By now the world knows that Seagate Barracuda
7200 drives, from the world’s premier storage
provider, deliver years of reliable service and
high performance. This is a product family that
has been strengthened and refined over 11
generations. It embodies the highest levels of
reliability, performance and capacity. And this
latest generation marks the single largest capacity
jump in the more than half-century history of hard
drives—a half-terabyte increase from the previous
high of 1 TB, thanks to the capacity-boosting
power of perpendicular magnetic recording
technology.

The drive is also available in capacities of 1
TB and 750, 640, 500, 320 and 160 GB. With
its amazingly wide range of capacities and
configurations, the Barracuda 7200.11 drive is an
ideal choice for mainstream PCs, performance
PCs, gaming machines and workstations, even
desktop RAID and external storage devices.
Additional Features
• Best-in-class environmental specifications and
reliability features
• Adaptive Fly Height offers consistent read/write
performance.
• Clean Sweep automatically calibrates the drive.
• Enhanced G-Force Protection™ defends
against handling damage.
• Seagate SoftSonic™ motor enables ultra-quiet
operation.
Advantages of Perpendicular Recording
After years of pioneering research at
Seagate, perpendicular recording is now a
proven technology. It increases capacity and
dependability by storing data vertically, rather
than horizontally.
The Eco-Friendly Choice
The Barracuda 7200.11 drive delivers up to 43
percent power savings over the previous Seagate
desktop generation without sacrificing drive or
system performance, giving customers the ability
to manufacture eco-friendly systems that meet
energy savings requirements.
Seagate hard drives have long been produced
with the environment in mind, and not just with
low power consumption. Like all other Seagate
drives, the Barracuda 7200.11 product family
complies with the Restriction of Hazardous
Substance (RoHS) Directive—a regulation that
limits hazardous materials in electronic goods.
With Seagate and the Barracuda 7200.11 drive,
our customers can have the best of both worlds—
top hard-drive performance and the satisfaction
of knowing they are using a high-capacity drive
with a very small eco-footprint.
