  • 1 TB of storage space for large media libraries

1 TB 7200 RPM desktop drive with tray

This 3.5 inch SATA hard drive delivers one terabyte of storage at 7200 RPM with a 32 MB cache. The package includes a caddy or tray for quick installation in standard desktop bays.

Suits bulk storage on older SATA systems

The 3 Gb/s SATA interface matches legacy motherboards and basic external enclosures. Builders who need the higher throughput of a 6 Gb/s link or the responsiveness of solid-state media should consider a different drive type.

3 Gb/s SATA interface sets the ceiling

The SATA 3 Gb/s link caps maximum sequential transfer well below what modern 6 Gb/s controllers can deliver. Verify that your host controller and cabling support this speed before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 3.5" SATA drive include a caddy or tray for mounting in a standard drive bay?

Yes, the Deskstar E7K1000 ships with a caddy/tray so the 3.5 inch unit can be secured in a regular desktop bay without extra hardware.

Which cables must be connected during installation, and which step is often missed?

Attach a SATA data cable to the motherboard and a SATA power connector from the PSU; the step most often missed is fastening both connectors firmly so the 3 Gb/s link stays stable.

When should the internal thermal sensor or SMART data prompt a replacement?

Monitor SMART attributes for rising reallocated-sector counts or temperature warnings from the onboard thermal sensor; sustained high readings indicate the 1 TB drive should be replaced.
