About This Product
The Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB is a 3.5-inch HDD with a SATA 3.0 Gb/s interface, 7200 RPM, and 16MB cache. It offers basic storage for general computing tasks. Compared to modern SSDs, it has significantly slower read/write speeds, making it less suitable for primary operating system drives or demanding applications. It is a budget-friendly option for mass storage where speed is not critical.
