Maxtor 146GB 10000RPM SATA Drive

The Maxtor 8B146J0 is a 146GB 3.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 10000 RPM with a SATA interface. It is supplied as a bare drive in a low-profile 1.0-inch form factor and is intended for desktop and server installations requiring fast sequential access.

Server workloads needing high spindle speed

This drive suits administrators who need 10000 RPM performance for transactional databases or high-throughput logging on SATA infrastructure. It is not for users who require larger capacities, solid-state latency, or interfaces other than SATA.

10000 RPM spindle speed

The defining specification is the 10000 RPM rotation rate, which determines the drive's random-access latency and sustained transfer profile. Buyers should verify that their controller and backplane support this spindle class before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Does the Maxtor 8B146J0 ship with cables, brackets or screws, or must they be purchased separately?

The drive is supplied as a bare unit only; SATA data and power cables, mounting brackets and screws are not included and must be sourced separately.

The title mentions both SCSI and SATA — which interface does this 146 GB model actually use?

The specifications list the interface as SATA; the 80-pin Ultra320 SCSI reference in the supplier title does not apply to this unit.

What does the 10 000 RPM rating mean for real-world server workloads on this 3.5" drive?

The 10 000 RPM spindle speed reduces average latency and increases sustained transfer rates, benefiting transaction-heavy server workloads that demand quick random access.
