Lenovo 1.2TB 3.5" 10000 RPM Internal Hard Drive

Lenovo 1.2TB 10000 RPM Hard Drive

This Lenovo 1.2TB 3.5" internal hard drive spins at 10000 RPM and is built for desktop systems. It provides 1.20 TB of storage capacity in a standard form factor. The drive is supplied new and the retail or OEM packing may vary. It suits users who need a high-speed mechanical drive for a desktop computer.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This drive suits desktop builders who want a 10000 RPM spindle for faster data access than slower-spinning mechanical drives. It is not for buyers who need a 2.5" form factor for a laptop or small-form-factor chassis. It is not for users who require the low latency and silent operation of a solid-state drive.

Deciding specification: 10000 RPM spindle speed

The 10000 RPM spindle speed is the single specification that decides whether this is the right part. A 10000 RPM drive delivers higher sustained transfer rates and lower rotational latency than standard desktop drives. If your workload needs that mechanical speed advantage, this 1.2TB drive meets the requirement. If your priority is maximum capacity per pound or silent operation, a different drive type will be more suitable.
