Pipeline HD 320GB SATA 3.0Gb/s drive

This 3.5 inch Seagate Pipeline HD drive delivers 320GB of storage over a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface with 8MB cache. It is supplied as a bare drive without cables or brackets. The unit is new and intended for desktop internal installation.

Suits legacy DVR upgrades or light desktop storage

This drive fits systems that require a SATA 3.0Gb/s connection and a 3.5 inch bay. Builders needing higher capacities or faster interfaces should consider other options. It is not designed for server workloads or modern high-performance arrays.

SATA 3.0Gb/s interface

The drive connects via SATA 3.0Gb/s, so the host must provide a compatible port. This single specification determines whether the drive will work in a given system. No other interface is supported by this model.

Questions about this item

How do I choose between the different capacities in the Pipeline HD series?

This model is the 320GB version; other capacities are separate SKUs not listed on this page.

What does the 3.0Gb/s SATA link mean for everyday performance?

The drive connects at SATA 3.0Gb/s, so the host controller will negotiate that link speed.
