The blazingly fast, amazingly easy way to store and work with massive amounts of data Perfect for desktop PC and Mac® computers, the Barracuda drives deliver the technology, efficiency and large capacities needed by today's computer enthusiasts. The combination of proven Seagate perpendicular recording technology, Native Command Queuing (NCQ), large 32-MB cache and the speed of a SATA 3-Gb/s interface delivers the optimum mix of performance and energy efficiency. Perpendicular recording technology increases performance and reliability by aligning the data bits vertically on the disc. NCQ dramatically increases performance by organising incoming commands in the most efficient order. The Barracuda 5,900-RPM drive delivers great performance at whisper-quiet acoustic levels, with reduced power consumption and lower heat generation. The reduction in power consumption provides immediate cost savings during operation, while running at a lower temperature with reduced heat output increases the drive's useful life. For high-end/gaming computers and RAID arrays, the Barracuda 7,200-RPM drive delivers both exceptional reliability and performance with sustained data transfer rates of up to 120 MB/s.
