Product Identity
The Seagate Barracuda 7200.9 is a 160 GB 3.5-inch internal hard drive spinning at 7200 RPM with an 8 MB buffer. It connects through a SATA 3 Gb/s interface that follows the SATA 2.5 revision specification and includes Native Command Queuing. The drive is supplied in new condition.
Ideal Use Cases
This drive suits builders who need a basic SATA hard drive for a desktop PC, a media centre or a legacy server that only accepts 3 Gb/s SATA connections. It is not for buyers who want more storage capacity, faster 6 Gb/s SATA throughput or a solid-state drive for quicker boot times.
Deciding Specification
The SATA 3 Gb/s interface with Native Command Queuing is the single detail that decides compatibility; the motherboard or controller must support this exact standard for the drive to operate correctly.

Fragen zu diesem Artikel
How can I verify the ST3160812A is running at 7200 RPM after installation?
Check the drive’s reported rotational speed in BIOS or a SMART monitoring tool; it should show 7200 RPM.
Does the ST3160812A include a SATA data cable and mounting screws, or must I buy them separately?
The drive is supplied as a bare unit; a SATA data cable and 3.5-inch mounting screws are not included and must be purchased separately.
The listing mentions 9BD032-304 — is that a different capacity or just a firmware revision of the 160 GB model?
9BD032-304 is the manufacturer’s part code for this exact 160 GB Barracuda 7200.9 drive; it does not indicate a different capacity.
