Other HDD Features

Platter HDDs have a special construction. The enclosure conceals a mechanism that utilises moving platters, complete with hard disk heads that read and write the data. These mechanical parts don't take shocks and impact well, but this weak point is well-compensated by an excellent price/storage capacity ratio. The important parameter that affects the speed of a hard disk is the number of rotations per minute (RPM). With the Seagate Exos X24 16TB 512E/4KN Standard SATA, you can look forward to 7200 rev/min revolutions per minute. This is welcome news for people with higher requirements, such as graphic or video editors - in short, people who work with large amounts of data. File access speed and overall stability is also affected by the disk buffer, usually called cache. The Seagate HDD includes a 512 MB cache that keeps the last written data for their speedy reading.
