About this product
This Seagate Barracuda ST34572WC-IBM is an internal desktop hard disk drive with a 4 GB storage capacity. It features a 3.5-inch form factor and connects via an 80-pin SCSI or Ultra SCSI interface. The drive operates at a 7200 RPM rotation speed, offering a read speed of 100MB/s and a transfer rate of 125 Mbps. An 8 MB cache is included to enhance performance. This enterprise-grade unit is compatible with PC systems and comes in a silver color.
Our take
If you're restoring or maintaining an older PC system that needs an enterprise-grade SCSI drive, this Seagate Barracuda ST34572WC-IBM is a solid option. The 4 GB capacity is quite small, but the 7200 RPM rotation speed is a good indicator of its performance for the SCSI era, providing quicker access times than slower drives. With Ultra SCSI support and an 80-pin interface, it offers respectable data transfer rates (100MB/s read, 125 Mbps transfer). The 8 MB cache is a standard but welcome addition for its time, helping to smooth out operations. Just ensure your system has an 80-pin SCSI controller.
