"Even the American producer reaches the threshold of 2TB on a single unit, but, unlike the competitor decides to allocate this type of product only to the enterprise segment and not to the consumer"
Seagate also announced that it has reached the goal of 2TB of capacity on a single unit.
Unlike what has been done by the direct competitor of all time, Seagate has decided to target the solution to the enterprise market, thus placing the new disc in the family Constellation ES. The new category, which does not arrive before the third quarter of 2009, will be characterized by the presence of solutions of lower denominations, respectively, 500GB and 1TB, in addition to the above 2TB version. All models are 3.5 "and a rotation speed of 7200RPM: You can also choose whether to use a SATA connection 300MB/so by SAS 600MB / s. Only towards the end of the year will be released 2 versions , 5 "Constellation series, characterized by the capacity of 160 and 500GB.
On consumption, all solutions have the Constellation PowerChute function, capable of reducing any dispersion of energy and at the same time optimize consumption.
Seagate has chosen to use a different approach than what has been done by the competitor: developing the new Constellation 2TB has definitely thought about designing a hard disk in a position to represent the ultimate in terms of capacity and the same ing to maintain a certain level of performance. The choices made are thus led to automatic placement of product on the Enterprise. Western Digital, by contrast, has preferred to maintain a competitive cost, reduce the speed at 5400RPM.
