Seagate BarraCuda 2TB laptop drive

The Seagate BarraCuda ST2000LM015 is a 2TB internal hard drive built for 2.5-inch laptop bays. It spins at 5400 RPM with a 128MB cache and connects through a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. The 7mm z-height suits thin-and-light notebooks and compact systems. The drive is supplied as a bare unit without cables or brackets.

Suits thin laptops; not for speed-critical work

This drive fits users who need affordable bulk storage in a slim chassis for everyday computing, media libraries or backups. Buyers who require faster application loading or boot times should consider solid-state alternatives. Systems limited to the older SATA 3.0Gb/s standard will still work but at reduced throughput. The 5400 RPM spindle is not intended for high-performance workloads.

7mm height decides fit

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 7mm drive height. Measure the drive bay or check the service manual before ordering; many ultrabooks and small-form-factor PCs only accept this slim profile. The SATA 6.0Gb/s interface and 2.5-inch width are standard, but the 7mm thickness is the limiting factor.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the ST2000LM015 is running at its rated 140 MB/s after installation?

Use a benchmark tool such as CrystalDiskMark on the SATA 6.0Gb/s link; sequential reads should approach 140 MB/s for the 2TB BarraCuda.

What does the Bare Drive packaging of the ST2000LM015 include, and what must I source separately?

The box contains only the 2.5-inch 7mm drive; mounting screws, a SATA data cable and any 2.5-to-3.5-inch bracket are not supplied.

Which BarraCuda capacity fits a 7mm bay — the 2TB ST2000LM015 or higher models?

The 2TB ST2000LM015 is the highest-capacity model in the 7mm z-height; 3TB to 5TB versions require a 15mm bay.
