Seagate Exos 15E900 300GB 512n SAS HDD Speed

Platter HDDs have a special construction. The enclosure conceals a mechanism that utilises moving platters, complete with disk read/write heads. These moving parts can be damaged by a shock or impact, but this design delivers a great combo of a low price and great storage capacity. The crucial criterion that determines the speed of a hard drive is RPM - the number of revolutions per minute. In case of the Seagate Exos 15E900 300GB 512n SAS, we have 15000 RPM RPM. File access speed and overall stability is also affected the embedded buffer memory known as cache. The Seagate hard disk includes a 256 MB cache that stores the last data inputs for their fast retrieval and reading.
