The Seagate Exos 7E8 2TB Base 512n SAS hard drive belongs among the high load internal HDDs for NAS storage solutions. The 3.5" format is designed chiefly for desktop PCs, data centres, and other data-processing devices. One of the most important parameters is clearly the rotational speed. The 7200 RPM RPM ensures better system response across the board. The overall data capacity of the HDD is 2000 GB. The device features a 256 MB memory cache. All the data communication between the Seagate hard drive and a computer or other device takes place through the SAS interface.
Platter hard disks have a notably special construction. Inside the drive there is a mechanism that utilises moving platters, complete with hard disk heads that facilitate reading and writing of data. These mechanical parts are admittedly more sensitive to shocks, but on the upside, this design also delivers a great combo of a low price and great storage capacity. The important criterion that determines the speed of a platter hard disk is RPM - the number of revolutions per minute. With the Seagate Exos 7E8 2TB Base 512n SAS, you can look forward to 7200 RPM revolutions per minute. This is great news for people who demand more from their devices, such as graphic or video editors - in short, people who work with large amounts of data. Data transmission and stability is also affected by the disk buffer, usually called cache. The Seagate hard drive includes a 256 MB cache that stores the last data inputs for their speedy reading.
If you want to mount the Seagate Exos 7E8 2TB Base 512n SAS in your laptop or other device, it requires a 3.5" slot. All communication with the computer happens using the SAS interface with a speed of 12.0 Gbit/s. This solution is not particularly widespread, however.
Seagate is headquartered in the famous Silicon Valley. It is a world leader in the manufacture and sale of hard drives for desktop computers, laptops and other devices. Seagate products are focused on maximum reliability in data storage.
