SEAGATE 15.3 Gbytes Drive

As for the series U10 the first thing the disks attract our notice by is a bit unusual design. The protective cover made of soft plastic SeaShield closing almost all electronics engineering and intended to fence it from the "effect" of user's hands.Besides there is a box made of transparent plastic where the disk is placed. It is necessary to say that they look impressive. In this series the protection system from impacts G-Force Protection and also the system of diagnostics 3D Defense System are used. The bit density is 10.2 GBytes on a plate.Riding the success of (and instrumental in founding) the value-class drive is Seagate with its U-series of ATA drives. Though not often seen for sale as stand-alone units, the U-series has met such tremendous success in OEM channels that it's claimed the title of the "most popular drive ever" in the measure of unit sales. Hence, it would be foolish to ignore the U-series current incarnation, the U10. The U10 promises quiet operation and the capacities demanded by users and OEM at a low cost. It features a tried and true 5400rpm spindle equipped with either one or two 10.2 gig platters. The flagship two-disk model is evaluated in this review. Despite its value-class status, Seagate rates the U10's seek time at a relatively swift 8.9 milliseconds. A 512k buffer rounds out the package. HAPPY BIDDING!
