Key Features

• RAID-specific time-limited error recovery improves compatibility with RAID adapters, and prevents drive fallout caused by the extended hard drive error-recovery processes common to desktop hard drives.
• 1 million hours MTBF meets enterprise-class reliability standards.
• Backed by an industry-leading five-year warranty.
• 8 MB cache provides a higher percentage of cache hits and significantly faster time to data than industry-standard 2 MB versions

  ¹ When measuring seek times, the average latency must be subtracted from read, write, or explicit seek commands.
  ² Defined as the time from power-on to the setting of the Drive Ready and Seek Complete including calibration.
  ³ Defined as the time from power-on to when the full spindle rotational speed is reached
