About this product
The Seagate Barracuda ES ST3750640NS is a 750GB SATA 3.5'' internal desktop hard drive. It operates at 7200 RPM, includes a 16MB cache, and connects via a SATA III interface with a transfer rate of 300 Mbps. This drive is compatible with PC systems, features Hot Swap capability, and offers a read speed of 320MB/s.
Our take
This 750GB Barracuda ES drive is a decent choice if you're looking for an older, reliable hard drive for a less demanding system or specific applications. The 7200 RPM speed is good for an HDD, and the 16MB cache provides some assistance, but it's not going to compare to newer, larger-cache drives. The SATA III interface is a plus, and the hot-swap feature can be useful in server or enterprise environments. While 750GB is a smaller capacity by today's standards, for the price, it could serve well as a boot drive for a budget build or for storing less critical data.
