Enterprise 500 GB SATA Drive
The Seagate Constellation ES ST500NM0011 is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for continuous operation in servers and storage arrays. It delivers 500 GB of capacity at 7200 RPM with a 64 MB cache and a SATA 6 Gbps interface. PowerChoice technology helps lower power and cooling costs during 24x7 use.
Suits RAID and Nearline Storage
This drive suits administrators who need reliable, high-capacity nearline storage for backup, archiving or RAID deployments. Buyers who want more storage capacity or faster solid-state performance should look at alternative solutions.
SATA 6 Gbps Interface Decides Fit
The single specification that decides fit is the SATA 6 Gbps interface. Your system must provide a matching SATA port and 3.5-inch bay; without that connection the drive cannot be installed or used.

Questions about this item
What does the SATA 6Gbps interface cap the drive at in practice?
The SATA 6Gbps interface limits maximum throughput to 6 Gb/s, so sustained reads and writes will not exceed that ceiling.
What physical space and mounting does the 3.5-inch drive need?
It fits a standard 3.5-inch drive bay and uses the usual four side or bottom screw holes for secure mounting.
How is the drive installed and which step is often missed?
Connect a SATA data cable to the motherboard and a SATA power cable from the PSU, then initialise the disk in the operating system — the initialisation step is frequently overlooked.
