Capacity and interface

This Seagate desktop drive provides 640GB of storage on a SATA 3.0Gb/s connection. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 32MB cache in a standard 3.5 inch form factor. The unit is supplied as a bare drive without cables or brackets. It is a new component intended for internal installation.

Suitable builds and limits

The drive suits older desktops or secondary storage roles where a 3.5 inch SATA bay is available. Builders needing higher capacity, faster transfer rates or a 2.5 inch form factor should consider other options. Systems that only support M.2 or PCIe storage cannot use this drive. Laptops and small form factor cases without 3.5 inch mounts are also incompatible.

Deciding specification

The SATA 3.0Gb/s interface is the single specification that determines whether this drive fits your system. Your motherboard or controller must provide a matching SATA port and the case must accommodate a 3.5 inch device. Without that interface and physical space the drive cannot be installed.

Questions about this item

Does the ST3640323AS need a 3.5-inch drive bay and a SATA power connector to operate?

Yes, the 3.5-inch form factor requires a standard desktop drive bay and the drive draws power through a SATA power connector from the PSU.

Will the ST3640323AS work on a motherboard that only supports SATA 3.0Gb/s?

The drive uses a SATA 3.0Gb/s interface so it runs at full speed on a matching port and remains compatible with slower SATA ports.

How can I confirm the ST3640323AS is running at 7200 RPM after installation?

Check the model ST3640323AS in BIOS or use a tool such as CrystalDiskInfo to verify the reported rotation speed shows 7200 RPM.
