Other HDD Features

Standard HDDs are notable for their construction. Inside the drive there is a mechanism that uses moving platters, complete with hard disk heads that read and write the data. These moving parts can be damaged by a shock or impact, but this design delivers an affordable price tag and high storage capacity. The key criterion that determines the speed of a hard disk is the number of platter revolutions per minute, generally known as RPM. In case of the Seagate Exos X20 20TB SAS, you would get 7200 RPM RPM. This is ideal for demanding users, such as graphic or video editors - in short, people who work with large amounts of data.
