Which Drive Has What?

Our drives are purpose-built, meaning each of our internal drives are built specifically for their intended use. Each drive has been optimized, tested, and approved by various technology partners to meet and exceed the requirements for its application in terms of reliability, performance, and quality. Seagate drives utilize conventional magnetic recording and shingled magnetic recording technologies based on intended use. Below is a table of our internal drives with each of their respective recording technology.
