Seagate Barracuda ES.2 1TB SAS Hard Drive Review

[RobRich]

Quote:

Seagate’s Barracuda ES.2 SAS drives make for an interesting and certainly unexpected entry to the rapidly evolving storage market. Seagate definitely took a chance with this drive, as no other player in the market has taken desktop-class technology and re-marketed it towards the workstation and server markets. Typically, it’s the other way around. However, this is a solid move, in our opinion, as IT managers can now buy both high performance 10K/15K RPM and high-capacity 7,200 RPM drives with a single SAS interface, instead of having to mix and match controller just to get costs in line with SATA for bulk storage.
