HGST HDS721612PLA380 Deskstar 7K160 120Gb SATA 3.5" Hard Drive

Overview

The Hitachi 120GB is a hard disk drive, which means it stores data using quickly rotating disks, or platters, that can be read and written on via the moving actuator arm. Hard disk drives generally have a large storage capacity, and so are perfect for large amounts of data. The potential performance is well below that of solid-state drives, but they can definitely still hold their own. The Hitachi 120GB is a bottom of the range hard disk drive, and should only ever be used as basic data storage.
