Other Hard Drive Features

The HDD boasts a unique design. The enclosure conceals a mechanism that uses moving platters accompanied by disk read and write heads. These mechanical parts don't take shocks and impact well, but this design delivers its amazing price/capacity ratio. The key criterion that determines the speed of a platter hard disk is RPM - the number of revolutions per minute. With the Seagate Exos 7E8 1TB Base 512n SATA, you would get 7200 RPM RPM. This is great news for people who demand more from their devices, such as graphic or video editors - in short, people who work with large amounts of data.
