Seagate 6TB Desktop HDD

The Seagate ST6000DM001 is a 3.5 inch internal hard drive offering 6000GB of storage for desktop PCs, all-in-one systems and home servers. It connects through a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface and carries 128MB of cache to handle everyday workloads.

Standard 3.5 inch SATA installation

Mount the drive in any 3.5 inch bay, attach the SATA data cable and a SATA power connector, then initialise it in the operating system. The bare-drive packaging means no screws or cables are included, so have those ready before starting.

Suits high-capacity bulk storage

This drive fits users who need a single large volume for media libraries, backups or archival data at 5900RPM speeds. Builders requiring faster access times, lower power draw or a smaller 2.5 inch form factor should consider alternative storage types.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the ST6000DM001 is operating correctly after installation?

The drive should be recognised by the BIOS and operating system at its full 6000GB capacity with the SATA 6.0Gb/s link speed reported.

What does the bare-drive package include and what must I supply myself?

The bare drive includes only the 3.5" hard disk unit; you must provide a SATA data cable, a SATA power connector from the power supply, and mounting screws for the 3.5" bay.

Which capacity and cache combination should I choose for a desktop storage upgrade?

This model provides 6000GB capacity with 128MB cache; the 4000GB variant offers 64MB cache instead.
