BarraCuda 7200.9 300GB SATA drive

The Seagate BarraCuda 7200.9 ST3300622AS is a 300GB 3.5-inch desktop hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM with a 16MB cache. It connects over a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface and includes NCQ support. The bare drive suits system builders adding affordable bulk storage to older or secondary PCs.

Check SATA port and bay space

Verify that the motherboard or controller offers a free SATA 3.0Gb/s port and that the case has an open 3.5-inch drive bay with mounting screws. A SATA data cable and a SATA power lead from the power supply are also required. No special drivers are needed for standard AHCI operation.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

The 3-D Defense System and 63 Gs operating shock rating indicate robust mechanical design for typical desktop workloads. At 7200 RPM the drive produces audible seek noise but remains within normal acoustic limits for a mechanical hard drive. Power draw is modest and compatible with standard desktop power supplies.
