Comparable SAS Hard Drives
Seagate ST3146356SS SAS Hard Drive
Seagate’s line of Cheetah 15K Hard Drives prove to be cost-effective solutions, offering high performance and reliability. This 3.5-inch drive has a 146GB capacity, an onboard cache of 16MB, and a spindle speed of 15,000RPM. The Seagate ST3146356SS SAS Hard Drive offers second-generation perpendicular recording, allowing for unmatched performance and maximum capacity. Seagate’s PowerTrim technology offers a 61% improvement in watts per gigabyte. As a 3.5-inch drive, the Seagate ST3146356SS offers one of the industry’s most reliable options at 1.6 million hours MTBF.
HP 375872-B21 SAS Hard Drive
A comparable drive to Seagate’s 146GB SAS drive, the HP 375872-B21 matches the 15,000RPM spindle speed, with average seek times as low as 4.3(read)/4.8(write ms). The HP 375872-B21 offers a sustained throughput of 89 MBps, with an electrical interface speed of 3.0GBps. While the Seagate ST3146356SS has an on-board cache with 16MB, the HP 375872-B21 offers 8MB.
Bottom Line
Both of these 146GB SAS drives offer solid performance and reliability, though Seagate’s ST3146356SS sets the pace among comparable drives. With industry-leading performance and tested reliability, Seagate’s SAS drive demonstrates both value and quality. While HP’s SAS drive is less costly, Seagate’s price difference is marginal. Additionally, Seagate’s ST3146356SS may be purchased refurbished, guaranteeing quality performance and low cost.
