Overview
This is a 500GB 2.5" HDD on the SATA interface. Sequential throughput tops out at 550 MB/s reads and 520 MB/s writes, backed by 16MB of cache. At roughly $0.14 per gigabyte it sits in the mid-range tier. SATA throughput caps near 550 MB/s — fine for game libraries and backups, slower for heavy scratch work.
Expect to pay around $72.00, which lands it among mid-range options. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and fold its price into your running build total. Seagate backs the product through its standard warranty channels; check the listing for region-specific terms.
