Seagate 2TB BarraCuda 5400 RPM 128MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 2.5" Laptop Internal Hard Drive ST2000LM015
Thinnest and lightest 2.5-inch hard drive with up to 2TB storage in a 7mm z-height, providing seamless upgrades of thin and light laptops and smaller form factor systems.
Fast data rates of up to 140MB/s enables superior PC end-user experience and snappier file transfers.
some of the newegg reviews says it dies easily after 6 months.
i would think 1 platter would be more robust fewer parts to fail.
2tb of ssd is astronomical in price
2tb of the seagate 2.5" is around $90 with tax or shipping
its listed as 7mm does this mean single or double platter?
i prefer single platter as it is more quiet
how quiet is it? does it need a HD silencer?
how fast is it given 5400rpm
how quiet are 2tb seagate 7mm 2.5 drive?

It's a two platter, shingled recording drive.

2 platter is better than 3.Luke M wrote:It's a two platter, shingled recording drive.
why are 3tb drives not 3 platter and 9.5mm?
