Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB 3.5" 5900RPM SATA Internal Hard Drive

The Seagate ST2000DL003 is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive that offers 2TB of room for everything from operating systems and software to large photo, video, and music libraries. Designed for standard SATA bays, it slips easily into most desktop towers, home servers, and small office workstations without requiring special adapters or tools.

Performance comes from a spindle speed of 5900 revolutions per minute, a 64MB cache that keeps frequently accessed data close at hand, and a SATA 6Gb/s interface that moves files swiftly. Together, these features support a sustained transfer rate of up to 144MB per second, so everyday tasks—like loading games, editing photos, or streaming high-bitrate video—feel smooth and responsive.

Efficiency is a key part of the drive’s appeal. Typical power draw sits at only 5.8 watts, which helps reduce heat and fan noise inside the case. If you are building a media center PC that stays on around the clock or a low-power network attached storage box, this low-watt design can translate into quieter operation and lower energy bills over time.

Seagate’s SmartAlign technology eases the move to the Advanced Format 4K standard. You can install the drive and start using it right away on Windows 7 or later without running extra alignment utilities, which simplifies upgrades from older drives.

A durable build rated for 80G of operating shock adds an extra layer of confidence when the drive is mounted in a busy family computer or a small business server that sees frequent access. Whether you need bulk storage for project backups, a reliable drive for a Plex media server, or an eco conscious upgrade for an aging desktop, this Barracuda Green model delivers a balanced mix of capacity, speed, and efficiency.
