    From my experience the words "Seagate" and "Mission Critical" do not belong in the same sentence.

    I guess smaller can be better, I was surprised that this Drive is a 2.5-inch Drive.
    I just started to change my server drives over to 2.5-inch Drives, small upfront cost to convert my HS 3.5-inch Drive Cages.

    The only thing critical Seagate can achieve is critical failures.


    Not my fault if you're offended.

    Most of our newer servers and SANs all have 2.5" drives.  The new NetApp disk shelves we just put in have 24x 1.2TB 10K 2.5" drives each so that's quite a bit of density in a 2U space.  The 15K rack was another story - 24x 600GB 3.5" taking up 4U.  I'm still not a fan of cramming that many 2.5" drives in such a small space.  From our experience 15K in a 2.5" form factor has always been less reliable than 10K.  I don't know if it's due to vibration or if cooling is an issue but the 15K drives seem to fail at least 2x as often.  We did request all HGST drives in the shelves though!

    Seagate used to be good back in the day. A nice consumer product.
