1 TB SATA desktop drive

The Seagate ST1000DM003 is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for desktop computers. It provides 1000 GB of storage on a SATA 6 Gb/s interface with a 7200 RPM spindle speed and 64 MB cache. The drive ships as a bare unit without cables or mounting hardware.

Suits bulk storage; not for boot speed

This drive suits users who need affordable capacity for media libraries, backups or secondary data volumes. The mechanical design delivers consistent throughput for sequential workloads. Buyers who want faster operating system boot times or application loading should consider solid-state alternatives instead.

7200 RPM spindle speed

The 7200 RPM rotation rate is the key specification that determines sustained transfer performance for large files. It sets this model apart from lower-speed desktop drives in the same capacity class. Verify that the system has a free 3.5-inch bay and a SATA data and power connection before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the ST1000DM003 9YN162 arrive as a bare drive or with cables and brackets?

The listing states it is a bare drive only, so no SATA data cable, power cable or mounting screws are included. You will need to supply those separately.

Which capacity and speed variant of the ST1000DM003 should I choose for a standard desktop?

This model is a single 1000GB version spinning at 7200RPM with a 64MB cache and SATA 6Gb/s interface, so there are no alternative capacities or speeds to select from.

What does the 7200RPM figure mean for everyday desktop use?

The 7200RPM spindle speed gives faster sequential read and write performance than slower laptop drives, making it suitable for operating system, applications and bulk storage in a desktop PC.
