Dell EQL 1TB 7200 RPM SATA drive

This Dell EQL 2HR85 drive provides 1TB of storage on a 3.5 inch SATA interface. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 32MB buffer. The unit is new and intended for desktop internal bays.

Suits storage expansion on SATA ports

It fits desktop systems with a 3Gbps SATA connection and a 3.5 inch bay. Buyers needing a 6Gbps interface or higher rotational speed should look at other models. The 32MB cache and 7200 RPM rating define its throughput envelope.

Interface speed is 3Gbps SATA

The drive connects through a SATA 3Gbps link, which sets the maximum transfer rate for the subsystem. Verify that the host controller supports this generation before installation.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 1 TB version or a different capacity?

This listing is for the 1 TB model ST31000524N8; no other capacities are offered under this part number.

What does the 7200 RPM speed mean for everyday use?

The 7200 RPM spindle gives faster sequential reads and writes than slower desktop drives, improving boot and file-copy times.

How does the SATA 3 Gbps interface limit performance?

The SATA 3 Gbps connection caps the drive’s maximum interface transfer rate, so sustained throughput cannot exceed that link speed.
