Seagate Enterprise Value HDD
The Seagate Enterprise Value HDD, also known as the Constellation CS, provides affordability for low workload, 24×7 replicated environments in a 3.5-inch, 7,200RPM SATA design. The Enterprise Value HDD features the lowest power consumption of Seagate’s new enterprise HDDs, drawing as much as 29 percent less power consumption than competitive high-capacity enterprise drives according to Seagate. Seagate Enterprise Value HDDs feature Seagate’s Instant Secure Erase as an option.

Seagate Enterprise Performance 10K HDD
The Seagate Enterprise Performance 10K HDD, also referred to as the Savvio 10K.6, is a 2.5-inch, 10K-RPM drive that Seagate says will deliver up to 21 percent faster performance than its current generation 10K drives. The Enterprise Performance 10K is expected to match the sustained data transfer rates found in current-generation 15K-RPM, 3.5-inch drives at up to 71 percent lower power consumption, or 14 percent lower power consumption than current generation 10K HDDs.
The Enterprise Performance 10K offers self-encryption and Seagate Instant Secure Erase. The Seagate Enterprise Performance 10K HDD FIPS SED, which will be available exclusively at 900GB, is in review with the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology for FIPS 140-2 Level-2 certification, and is expected to be available by mid-2013.
