Seagate Constellation.2 250 GB

This is a 250GB 2.5" HDD on the SATA interface. At roughly $0.21 per gigabyte it sits in the mid-range tier. Sequential throughput tops out at 550 MB/s reads and 520 MB/s writes, backed by 64MB of cache. SATA throughput caps near 550 MB/s — fine for game libraries and backups, slower for heavy scratch work.

Its $52.25 price tag places it squarely in mid-range territory. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and compare current drive prices across retailers. Warranty coverage follows Seagate's standard policy — confirm regional terms on the listing.
