Seagate Cheetah 15K.7 600GB SAS Enterprise Drive

The Seagate Cheetah 15K.7 ST3600057SS is a new 3.5-inch enterprise hard drive built for high-throughput server and storage arrays. It spins at 15000 RPM on a SAS 6Gb/s interface with 16MB cache, delivering sustained transfer rates up to 204MB/s and an average seek time of 3.4ms.

Suited for transaction-heavy workloads

This drive targets environments that demand the highest 3.5-inch reliability and low latency for random I/O, such as database, email and NAS deployments. Buyers needing larger capacity per spindle or lower power draw per terabyte should consider alternatives.

SAS 6Gb/s interface and 15000 RPM spindle

The dual-port SAS 6Gb/s connection and 15000 RPM rotation speed are the decisive specifications; they determine controller compatibility and the sustained throughput ceiling for mission-critical applications.
