Seagate ST373455LW CHEETAH 15K.5/ 73.4GB/ 15KRPM/ ULTRA320/ 68PIN/ 5YR

The Seagate Cheetah 15K.5 Ultra320 SCSI 73-GB enterprise hard drive offers an unrivaled combination of high performance, high reliability and best price for performance. Seagate Cheetah 15K.5 hard drives feature perpendicular recording technology for maximum capacity and reliability and are the first to break the 100-MB/s sustained transfer rate barrier. The Cheetah 15K.5 drive delivers higher throughput with fewer drives than conventional 10K RPM solutions. Background management functions improve media integrity, increase drive efficiency and reduce failures—allowing for the industry’s highest field-proven reliability and price-for-performance value. The Cheetah 15K.5 hard drive offers lasting value, enabling systems to keep up with increasing performance needs over a longer period of time in enterprise environments where reliability and performance are critical.
