About this product
The NetApp Seagate Cheetah 10K.7 ST373207FC is a 73GB Fibre Channel HDD with a 3.5-inch form factor, operating at 10,000 RPM. This internal server drive includes a tray and features hot-swap capability, making it convenient for server maintenance and upgrades. Part of the reliable Cheetah product line, it's designed for enterprise environments where performance and compatibility with Fibre Channel systems are key. While its capacity is modest, it's suitable for specific applications requiring fast, small storage blocks.
Our take
This Seagate Cheetah 10K.7 drive is a niche product, primarily for those running older Fibre Channel server infrastructure who need a specific replacement or expansion. The 73GB capacity is quite small by modern standards, but the 10,000 RPM rotation speed and hot-swap feature are definite positives for its intended use as an internal server drive. The included tray is a nice bonus, saving you the hassle of finding a compatible one. Just be aware of the limited storage — this isn't for mass storage, but rather for boot drives or specific high-I/O applications where Fibre Channel is a requirement.
