Hitachi’s Deskstar 7K1000

The Hitachi’s Deskstar 7K1000 hard disk drive sizes 3.5inch offers a storage capacity of 1TB. Its features include perpendicular recording, SATA 3Gbit/sec, 8.7ms of average seek time, 7200rpm and a 32MB buffer. It consumes 10.8 watts of power during its working and 9 watts when it’s kept idle. It contains five platters and each of the five platters could hold up to 200GB. The burst speed of Deskstar 7K1000 is 185.9MB/s which is quiet good when compared with its peers like Samsung, Seagate and western digital.

Although this hard disk does not have a good speed when compared with its peers it’s really a good deal for the customer’s. The Deskstar 7K1000 is priced at 250$ which is comparatively cheaper when considering its introductory price. This price will even come down as there are chances for 2TB hard disk drives.
