Seagate's 11th generation 1.5TB Barracuda 7200.11 hard disk was the first 1.5TB disk to market, and although it's been around for a while, it's still a very capable and popular drive.It's easy to see why, with its combination of performance, capacity...

Like the 1TB version, this 7200.11 is based on relatively old technology, so it’s at a disadvantage. Its most prominent weakness is power consumption: it’s quoted as drawing 8.3W idle and 10.8W in operation, which is no worse than the 1TB model, but st...
A bog-standard drive, but it’s best value in this capacity...

1.5 TB is one of the largest sizes of hard drive available today. Seagates model at this end of the range is the 7200.11, but the manufacturer isnt relying on size alone to sell this hard drive: it claims that its second generation perpendicular mag...

The 1TB drive has a more promising set of specifications than other Seagate disks. Three 334GB platters and a 32MB cache bring the Seagate into line with the majority of its high-capacity rivals. The 1TB Barracuda returned quick benchmark results - an...

After the 2TB Caviar Green, this is the largest disk on test this month - and alongside the cavernous amount of space, provided as four 375GB platters, is a 32MB cache. Cramming so much storage into such a small space didn't seem to slow down the Seaga...

Seagate varies its specifications more than any other manufacturer. The 640GB Barracuda boasts two platters and a 32MB cache; this 750GB drive has four 188GB platters but only 16MB of buffer, resulting in predictably reduced performance. Average read a...

Seagate's long-running Barracuda range comes with decent specifications, including a 32MB cache and 7,200rpm spindle speed across most of the range. This 640GB drive is the lowest capacity Seagate product on test this month. But with two dense 320GB pl...

The first hard drive that Seagate ever made was called the ST506, which fit into two 5.25in bays, and held a grand total of 5MB storage. Back when it was released in 1980, it cost many hundreds of dollars ($US1500 to be exact), and was more space than...

This would have been the highest-capacity hard disk weve ever seen if it werent for the last-minute arrival of Western Digitals 2TB Caviar Green. That said, 1.5TB is still a staggering capacity. Best of all, it doesnt come at a price premium: at...

You really have to wonder when the need for hard drive space began to start skyrocketing. Although I got into this hobby/addiction later than some, I remember my first hard drive being in the realm of 500 megabytes. Coupled up with my 486 DX2 processo...

As the largest single drive in its class, the Seagate Barracuda 1.5 Terabyte 7200.11 hard drive offers performance equal to or greater than the Seagate 1TB drive. It only falls short in the access time portion of the benchmarking. With that being said...

The Barracuda 7200.11 has an enormous capacity, is very fast, has a modest price and operates quietly. It's clear that SSDs will replace hard drives in time, but with drives like the 1.4TB Barracuda around, that still lies some way in the future.

With the Barracuda 7200.11 1.0 TB Seagate presents a hard disk with an above average capacity. The throughput is also astonishing: 109 MByte/s when the drive does sequential writing operations. When you consider that in the specifications only 105 MByt...

So what are you actually receiving for the money you need to spend on a Seagate 1 TB Barracuda 7200.11 is performance, storage speed and reliability. My 750GB Barracuda is two years old and I have not had a problem with it, while I have RMAed two West...

Hard disks by far are the slowest part of the computer today when it comes to the mechanical nature of them; granted, DVD drives are slower still, but they aren’t used for storing the Operating System or Virtual Memory which the hard disk plays the...

For storage of lots of data, a hard drive is the best option for the time being, especially now that SSD prices are rising rather than falling. Luckily there is still enough innovation in the hard disk field. Time for a new comparative test with no less t...
Despite the fact that there are only three hard disk drive manufacturers left, you have a lot to choose from when you're looking for a new drive. It is not just about prices either. Though SSDs have outperformed hard drives for a long time now, there are...
