Dell 80GB 7200RPM SATA Desktop Drive

This Dell HY281 internal hard drive delivers 80GB of storage on a 3.5 inch SATA 3Gb/s interface. It spins at 7200RPM with an 8MB cache buffer. The drive is supplied new and carries the manufacturer part number ST380815AS.

Suits legacy desktop upgrades

It fits older desktops that still use SATA 3Gb/s ports and need a modest 80GB drive. Builders requiring larger capacities or faster 6Gb/s SATA performance should consider other options.

The 3Gb/s SATA interface determines controller

This drive connects through a SATA 3Gb/s link, so the host controller must support that standard. Verify the motherboard or add-in card provides a matching SATA port before purchase.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the ST380815AS is running at its rated 7200 RPM after installation?

The drive should appear in BIOS or Disk Management with an 80 GB capacity; a SMART tool will report the spindle speed as 7200 RPM and the SATA link at 3 Gb/s.

What does the HY281 package contain and what extra parts are needed?

The box holds the bare 3.5 inch SATA hard drive only; a SATA data cable, a SATA power lead from the PSU and mounting screws for a 3.5 inch bay must be supplied separately.

Which capacity version of the ST380815AS should I choose for a legacy desktop?

Only the 80 GB model is offered; select it when you need a direct replacement for an original 80 GB 7200 RPM SATA drive in an older system.
