SATA drives are designed to handle more I/O requests per second compared to SATA, making them a preferred choice for servers, workstations, and other critical IT environments.

2.5-Inch Form Factor: Compact Yet Powerful

The 2.5-inch form factor of the Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS makes it an ideal choice for space-constrained environments, including server racks and data centers. Despite its compact size, the drive delivers enterprise-grade performance and reliability, making it suitable for applications where both density and efficiency are required.

7,200 RPM Rotational Speed: Balancing Performance and Power Consumption

The 7,200 RPM rotational speed of the Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS strikes an optimal balance between performance and power efficiency. This speed is suitable for general-purpose workloads that require moderate data throughput without the high power consumption associated with faster drives such as those with 10,000 or 15,000 RPM.

Seagate Constellation.2 HDD: Enterprise-Grade Reliability

The Seagate Constellation.2 series, including the ST9500620NS , is known for its enterprise-grade reliability, making it ideal for mission-critical environments. With features like Error Correction Code (ECC) and enhanced durability, these drives are built to handle the rigorous demands of 24/7 operation in data centers and enterprise environments.

Built for 24/7 Operation

The Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS is engineered for continuous operation, with a focus on long-term durability and data integrity. This makes it a go-to solution for businesses that require constant uptime and can’t afford the risks associated with drive failure.

Advanced Error Correction

The drive incorporates advanced ECC (Error Correction Code) algorithms to ensure that data remains consistent and reliable over long periods of time. This is essential for preventing data corruption in critical applications such as databases and large-scale storage arrays.

Energy Efficiency and Power Management Features

The Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS is designed with energy efficiency in mind, incorporating advanced power management features to help businesses reduce their operational costs. Lower energy consumption is particularly important for large-scale data centers where hundreds or thousands of drives may be running simultaneously.

Eco-Friendly Enterprise Storage

Incorporating drives like the Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS into your data center architecture not only saves on operational costs but also contributes to a greener IT environment by reducing carbon footprint and energy waste.

Applications for the Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS 500GB HDD

With its blend of performance, reliability, and energy efficiency, the Seagate Constellation.2 ST9500620NS 500GB SATA HDD is well-suited for a variety of enterprise applications. Its 500GB capacity makes it ideal for small to medium-sized data storage needs, while its SATA interface and enterprise-grade reliability ensure it can handle more demanding workloads.

Seagate Constellation.2 vs. Consumer-Grade Drives
