About this product

The Seagate 9BD862-560 is a 100GB external hard drive featuring a USB 2.0 interface. It boasts a 7200 RPM rotation speed and a 2 MB cache, offering a balance of performance for its vintage. This external drive provides basic, compact storage, suitable for light data needs or as a backup solution for older systems.

Our take

This Seagate 100GB external drive offers a decent 7200 RPM spin speed and a 2 MB cache for its generation, which is good for an HDD. However, the 100GB storage capacity is quite modest in today's landscape, and the USB 2.0 interface will limit transfer speeds considerably. It's a basic external drive, likely best suited for archival purposes or as supplemental storage for systems where speed isn't a primary concern. Don't expect blazing performance, but it could be a reliable workhorse for smaller files.
