About this product
This Seagate ST90000U2 is a portable external hard drive offering 60GB of storage capacity. It features a 2.5-inch form factor and utilizes a USB 2.0 interface, making it compatible with laptops, Macs, and PCs. The drive operates at a rotation speed of 5400 RPM and includes an 8MB cache, providing a basic performance profile for portable use. It comes in a black color and is designed for HDD-only storage.
Our take
For the price, this Seagate portable drive offers a minimal amount of storage for extremely basic needs. The 60GB capacity is quite small by today's standards, making it suitable for only a handful of essential documents or very small photo collections. The 5400 RPM rotation speed and USB 2.0 interface mean it won't be a speed demon, but for light use, it should function adequately. The 8MB cache is a small boost compared to some older drives, but don't expect rapid transfers of large files. Its 2.5-inch form factor makes it genuinely portable, which is a definite plus for on-the-go users who only need a small amount of space.
