Seagate's Constellation Hard Drive fits that bill to a T. It Outperforms the Velociraptor by almost 20mb/s on maximum read performance, and with 2TB of space it puts the 300GB capacity of the Velociraptor to shame.” - Lanoc Reviews, January 2010 “I personally think that Seagate is on the right track with Constellation ES series and i am sure this is not the end of the Enterprise line for Seagate. Great fast drives and great performance. 9/10!” - Umlan, January 2010 "Rorke Data's HD video and 3D film post production customers need both the increased capacity and the 6Gb/s SAS performance of the Constellation™ ES drives to meet their growing needs, especially in the world of 3D. Our Galaxy® Aurora RAID systems take full advantage of the high-capacity Constellation™ ES drive by packing 72TB in under 9 inches of rack space while delivering sustained transfer rates of 3300MB/s," - Joe Rorke, vice president of marketing, Rorke Data Seagate® Enterprise Family Hard Drives Seagate® Constellation™ Enterprise-class 2.5-inch 7200 RPM nearline drive click here ( http://www..com/s/url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=Seagate+Constellation ) Seagate® Constellation™ ES Enterprise-class 3.5-inch 7200 RPM drive Seagate® Savvio® 10K Enterprise-class 2.5-inch 10,000- RPM drive click here ( http://www..com/s/url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=Seagate+Savvio+10k ) Seagate® Savvio® 15k Enterprise-class 2.5-inch 15,000- RPM drive click here ( http://www..com/s/url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=Seagate+Savvio+15k ) Seagate® Cheetah® 15k Enterprise-class 3.5-inch 15,000- RPM drive click here ( http://www..com/s/url=search-alias%3Delectronics&field-keywords=Seagate+Cheetah ) Constellation ES Drive Specifications Specifications SAS 2.0 SATA 2 TB1 1 TB1 500 GB1 2 TB1 1 TB1 500 GB1 Model Number ST32000444SS ST32000445SS2 ST31000424SS ST31000425SS2 ST3500414SS ST3500415SS2 ST32000644NS ST31000524NS ST3500514NS Interface 6Gb/s SAS, 3GB/s SAS 6Gb/s SAS, 3GB/s SAS 6Gb/s SAS, 3GB/s SAS SATA 3GB/s, SATA 1.5Gb/s SATA 3GB/s, SATA 1.5Gb/s SATA 3GB/s, SATA 1.5Gb/s Self Encrypting Drive (SED) Government Grade Security Yes Yes Yes - - - Performance Spindle Speed (RPM) 7200 7200 7200 7200 7200 7200 Seek Time Average Read/Write (ms) 8.5/9.5 8.5/9.5 8.5/9.5 8.5/9.5 8.5/9.5 8.5/9.5 Track-to-Track Read/Write (ms) 0.5/0.8 0.5/0.8 0.5/0.8 0.5/0.8 0.5/0.8 0.5/0.8 Maximum Sustained Transfer Rate (MB/s) 150 150 150 140 140 140 Cache, Multisegmented (MB) 16 16 16 64 32 32 Configuration/Organization Bytes per Sector 512, 520, 524, 528 512, 520, 524, 528 512, 520, 524, 528 512 512 512 Reliability/Data Integrity Power-On Hours (annual) 8760 8760 8760 8760 8760 8760 Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF, hours) 1.2 million 1.2 million 1.2 million 1.2 million 1.2 million 1.2 million Reliability Rating at Full 24x7 Operation (AFR) 0.73% 0.73% 0.73% 0.73% 0.73% 0.73% Nonrecoverable Read Errors per Bits Read 1 per 10E15 1 per 10E15 1 per 10E15 1 per 10E15 1 per 10E15 1 per 10E15 IOEDC (I/O Error Dectection Code) Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes IOECC (I/O Error Correction Code) Reads/Writes Reads/Writes Reads/Writes Writes Writes Writes Load/Unload Cycles (at 40°C) 300,000 300,000 300,000 300,000 300,000 300,000 Interface Ports Dual Dual Dual Single Single Single Limited Warranty (years) 5 5 5 5 5 5 Power Management Power Supply Requirements +12V and +5V +12V and +5V +12V and +5V +12V and +5V +12V and +5V +12V and +5V Idle(W) 8.0 6.0 5.6 7.0 5.0 4.6 Typical Operating Power, Random Read (W) 12.2 10.8 10.4 11.2 9.8 9.4 Typical Operating Power, Random Write (W) 11.2 9.6 9.2 10.2 8.6 8.2 PowerChoice™ option, 1 to 4 range (W) As low as 1.26 As low as 1.30 As low as 1.28 As low as 0.53 As low as 0.57 As low as 0.55 Environmental Rotational Vibration @ 1800 Hz (rad/sec2) 12.5 12.5 12.5 12.5 12.5 12.5 Shock (Gs) Operating: 2 ms (Gs) 70 70 70 70 70 70 Nonoperating: 1 ms and 2ms (Gs) 300 350 350 300 350 350 Temperature (°C) Operating 5 to 60 5 to 60 5 to 60 5 to 60 5 to 60 5 to 60 Nonoperating -40 to 70 -40 to 70 -40 to 70 -40 to 70 -40 to 70 -40 to 70 Acoustics Idle(bels, typlical) 2.7 2.2 1.9 2.7 2.2 1.9 Physical Height (in/mm) 1.028/26.1 1.028/26.1 1.028/26.1 1.028/26.1 1.028/26.1 1.028/26.1 Width (in/mm) 4.0/101.6 4.0/101.6 4.0/101.6 4.0/101.6 4.0/101.6 4.0/101.6 Depth (in/mm) 5.787/146.99 5.787/146.99 5.787/146.99 5.787/146.99 5.787/146.99 5.787/146.99 Weight (lb/kg) 1.565/0.71 1.411/0.64 1.345/0.61 1.543/0.70 1.344/0.61 1.289/0.585 1 One gigabyte, or GB, equals one billion bytes and one terabyte, or TB, equals one trillion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. 2 SED option for SAS models only.
