Description

This is suitable for a NAS that uses ZFS in any configuration-be it a mirror or a RAID config (thanks CMR!), local storage that is sensitive to network latency but not high bandwidth, archiving that has large changes regularly that SMR will choke on or perhaps a drive for storing games (since this is a gaming brand of Seagate's) that weren't designed for SSDs or aimed at an older game collection. The BarraCuda 8TB is physically one of the larger drives in the lineup, standing at about 26.11mm tall compared to the 20.2mm height of its smaller siblings. It features a SATA 3 (6Gb/s) interface, a 256MB cache, and a rotational speed of 5,400 RPM.

There's also a scheme (known as the T10 Data Integrity Field (DIF)) for doing host-based error correction that exposes sectors as 520 bytes, instead of 512. Most enterprise drives support this. The extra bits are meant to hold ECC. I wonder how a Hybrid SSHD with Optane would've performed if it had 16 GiB and beyond of Optane integrated as their "Flash" Buffer solution on top of large DRAM cache that modern HDD's use ( ≥ 2 GiB)Regardless, sequential read and write performance on the drive is still quite decent, making the Seagate BarraCuda Compute 8TB to be very suitable for what it is made for. A very tiny indie game developer. He also loves to play games, read fiction, watch shows and anime. He is a tech enthusiast currently pursuing Engineering who likes to write. Read Gaming ? maybe but you would know that it's not an ideal solution and would want to upgrade to an SSD eventually because of the eventual stuttering.

It also features what Seagate is calling Multi-Tier Caching Technology to help the drive perform faster in spite of its slower rotational speed. According to Seagate, the MTC technology utilizes a NAND Flash, DRAM, and a media cache to improve the drive’s performance by optimizing the data flow to and from the drive, depending on the data that’s being transferred.

It performed well enough, with no discernable noise - it seems to be a decent drive for its purposes: occasional archival of files (e.g. fotos, videos) where speed (write and read) is of little concern. For all the rest I have a couple of NVMEs.

Seagate doesn’t complicate this model, so it’s only available at 4TB and 8TB, which is fine as these are the two most popular capacities for desktop PCs. However, these capacities can be limiting, so you will have to reach for the IronWolf series to get better density. Are there better drives on the market? - sure, probably almost all. But - in my case - they were all fairly more expensive (e.g. the 6TB Blue was 30% more expensive than the 8TB Barracuda). The dimensions of the 8TB internal hard disk are 146.99 x 101.85 x 26.11 mm. It comes with a form factor of 3.5″. The hard disk is quite versatile and supports every different kind of cabinet sizes, from mini ATX to full tower cabinets.

Some people say when you write a bigger amount – for instance over 100 GB – that the writing performance is sinking drastically to under 1-2 MByte/s. A sütik feldolgozásának elfogadásával nélkülözhetetlen és analitikai sütik kerülnek telepítésre eszközére, amelyeket a weboldal megtekintéséhez használ (az "Értem" gombra kattintva mindkét kategóriát elfogadja, vagy kiválaszthhatja a kategóriák közül csak az egyiket a "Beállítások" gombra kattintva).
