Seagate Mobile 1TB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Internal HDD

The Seagate ST1000LM038 is an internal hard drive that brings 1TB of storage to laptops, mini PCs and external enclosures that rely on the 2.5 inch form factor. With its slim 7 millimetre height, it slides easily into most notebooks or game consoles without forcing changes to the existing layout.

A SATA 6Gb/s interface keeps file transfers quick and responsive. The drive spins at 5400 RPM and works with a 128MB cache, a combination that handles everyday tasks such as booting the operating system, loading applications or streaming media without excessive noise or heat.

The capacity is enough for roughly 100,000 photos, 125,000 songs or more than 60 hours of high definition video, making the drive a practical upgrade for students who need more room for coursework, travelers who store movies locally or professionals who keep large project files on hand. Power draw stays around 1.6 watts while reading or writing, so battery life in mobile systems remains protected.

Built-in FIPS 140-2 encryption helps secure confidential documents, while the two-year limited warranty from Seagate adds peace of mind. At just 90 grams, the drive is light enough for a DIY external enclosure, yet durable enough for daily commuting.
