About this product
Product Information
A Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 hard drive combines proven components and excellent technology to offer a high-performing hard drive. This 10th generation desktop hard drive offers you great digital storage that features a 7200 RPM motor speed. A generous 8MB high-speed cache and a quick SATA 3Gb/s interface boost this already high RPM speed. This SATA configuration allows you to write to the extra-large capacity of the ST380815AS as if it were a smaller volume. This hard disk meets the demanding requirements of complex environments and applications with perpendicular recording technology. Seagate engineers installed a second layer of material underneath the recording media to double the storage capacity. Even though the ST380815AS is an 80GB HDD, it’s the size of most 40GB drives. This unique configuration also allows the Barracuda to reduce its dependence on moving parts. This, in turn, makes the ST380815AS Barracuda a more reliable device even under heavy use. This 80GB internal hard drive can be used as a second disk. With it, you can download and store multiple games, hundreds of songs, and large movie files.Seagate made sure that the device would have plenty of drive space even if used as a primary boot device. Several top AAA games can comfortably fit on the ST380815AS alongside the Windows operating system. Gamers can experience responsiveness and short search times when using the Seagate Barracuda in this manner. Users of Microsoft system software can format these with the standard NTFS format used by these games. The entire format process should only take a few minutes.Since this volume works with standard serial hardware, you can connect it to your machine with the same cables that are already installed. If you're working with small form-factor components, then it can mount with the hard steel screws in your chassis. Apple machines that accept 3.5-inch disk cases are compatible with these devices as well.Installing this drive into an Apple machine can assist you in assuring greater compatibility later on. While it can take either type of OS X file system, this disk can also work with the APFS structure preferred by OS Sierra. This gives you the ability to use this volume with the newer Macs that accept 3.5-inch cases. If you'd like to use it as a transfer volume, then you could even connect it via an external enclosure. Support for the exFAT standard allows you to transfer files between your Mac and PC over any USB adapter.Users of open-source ecosystems can format this volume quite easily as well. It supports both GUID and MBR partitioning, so you can boot nearly any modern distribution of Linux off it. With support for nearly all extended file system (ext) variants, this is an excellent drive for Linux gamers. Because it works fine with Linux File Allocation Table tools, you could even create a giant FAT32 partition on the volume. This allows you to skirt the FAT32 partition size limitations that rear their head when working with drives of this size. The device provides flexible options for your system.
