  • Key Specs
    • Storage Capacity: 22000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
    • Storage Drive Type: HDD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
    • Rotational Speed: 7200 revolutions per minute (The rate at which the hard drive spins its platters. The higher the rotational speed, the faster the drive can read and write data.)
    • Maximum Read Speed: 265 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)
    • Maximum Write Speed: 265 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can write information; for example, saving files.)
    • Form Factor: 3.5 in.
    • Interface(s): SATA (Refers to the types of connections that devices use to interact and communicate with each other.)

    Good drive

    The drive works extremely well. Installed quickly and Windows found the drive right away. File transfer is very fast! There is some drive noise, but it is not bad. Very good purchase.
