For sure, the new Seagate 7200.12 series of HDD is significantly faster than its is predecessor, the 7200.11. Upgrading is just worthy and will boost the performance of your PC. You can easily expect a faster reading by 17MB/sec, while writing writin...
Were happy with the 7200.12 series so far. Performance is great in most areas, besting the 7200.11 series 1.5TB drive and the Velociraptor in some tests. The power consumption and temps are also an improvement over the previous generation of drives,...

Despite the fact that there are only three hard disk drive manufacturers left, you have a lot to choose from when you're looking for a new drive. It is not just about prices either. Though SSDs have outperformed hard drives for a long time now, there are...

Abstract: Seagates Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS ist ein guter Kompromiss zwischen Leistung und Laufruhe. Diese Festplatte verwendet nur zwei Platter, wodurch Stromverbrauch, Abwärme und Geräuschpegel deutlich niedriger ausfallen als bei Modellen der 1TB-Klasse, die noch mit drei oder vier Plattern..
Silent-Freaks mit viel Platzbedarf dürfen beruhigt zur ST31000528AS greifen, die zudem auch noch ein angemessenes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis vorzuweisen hat. Anlass zur Kritik bieten aber die Datenraten beim Schreiben und Kopieren sowie die nicht optim...
Da die Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST3500418AS nur einen Platter besitzt, arbeitet diese Festplatte sehr leise und verbraucht wenig Strom. Zugleich sorgt ihre hohe Datendichte für sehr gute sequentielle Lese und Schreibraten. Doch leise, sparsam und sc...
