The Seagate ST3120025A 120GB IDE Hard Drive is a member of the Seagate 3.5-inch high-capacity desktop drive family for high-performance PCs and advanced storage applications. ST3120025A is a 120GB 7200RPM IDE drive by Seagate. The ST3120025A provides higher interconnect speeds, scalability, and reliability, surpassing the technology’s originally intended applications. These disk drives are extensively used in environments where scalability and cost are primary driving factors. ST3120025A has a mean time between failure (MTBF) of 1.2 million hours. This hard drive is a perfect candidate to be used as a donor part for hard drive repair and data recovery purposes. Storage unit has been completely tested and is determined fully functional.
- High instantaneous (burst) data transfer rates (up to 100 Mbytes per second) using Ultra DMA mode 5.
- Giant magnetoresistive (GMR) recording heads and EPRML technology, which provide the drives with increased areal density.
- State-of-the-art cache and on-the-fly error-correction algorithms.
- Full-track multiple-sector transfer capability without local processor intervention.
- Quiet operation.
- 350 Gs nonoperating shock.
- SeaTools diagnostic software performs a drive self-test that eliminates unnecessary drive returns.
- The 3D Defense System, which includes Drive Defense, Data Defense, and Diagnostic Defense, offers the industry’s most comprehensive protection for disc drives.
- Support for S.M.A.R.T. drive monitoring and reporting.
- Support for Read Multiple and Write Multiple commands.
- Support for autodetection of master/slave drives that use cable select (CSEL).
