The Power of One
Barracuda Hard Drives
Adding Ever-Higher Capacity to Hard Drives is Getting Harder — and our Engineers are Meeting the Challenge
New Seagate 1TB-per-disc technology marks another major milestone for the hard drive industry. To make this happen, Seagate engineers had to pack 340,000 hard drive tracks into the width of a single inch. This means that, when reading and writing data, the read/write head needs to accurately follow a track that is a mere 75 nanometres wide. That’s about 500 times smaller than the full stop at the end of this sentence.
Seagate AcuTracTM technology helps enable this incredible feat — reliably and accurately following these nano-tracks, even in challenging operating environments such as an all-in-one PC with the music turned up.
Seagate OptiCacheTM Technology Continues to Push Performance
Barracuda 1TB-per-disc hard drives now include a host of refined technologies to further boost performance. In combination, these improvements squeeze even more performance out of storage already known for pushing the envelope!
• Third-generation dual-core processor with integrated ARM handles more data faster
• 40nm chip manufacturing technology delivers more computing power without increasing electrical power requirements
• 64MB of DDR2 SDRAM enables the fastest cache to date on Barracuda drives
You Do Not Have to Compromise Performance to Use the Highest Capacities
Until now, the highest capacity desktop drives were usually only available in reduced RPM models. Now Seagate delivers every capacity point from 250GB to 3TB on our full 7,200 RPM performance platform. Why settle for less?
