10K.3
Lowest-power, high-capacity 2.5-inch drive for the enterprise
Lower power, higher performance
The Seagate Savvio 10K.3 drive offers the best combination of power efficiency and enterprise performance, with up to 300 GB of capacity for mainstream server and external storage applications for the enterprise. The Savvio 10K.3 drive with PowerTrim technology uses 75 percent less power than a 3.5-inch 15K drive for the lowest power profile of any Tier 1 mission-critical drive. It is 70 percent smaller than 3.5-inch drives, enabling more system airflow, which results in lower cooling costs. This third-generation Savvio drive gives you more than twice the number of drives over 3.5-inch products within the same rack configuration and delivers a staggering 60 percent system-level performance increase. This is especially important in high-performance and blade servers demanding optimized RAID performance per U. These 2.5-inch advantages translate into greater overall value and reduced total cost of ownership for IT organizations and administrators who wish to optimize their data center’s power and performance efficiency.

Ready for high-end networks
The industry’s first 2.5-inch drive to implement the new SAS 2.0 feature set and the world’s first drive to operate at 6-Gb/s transfer rates, the Savvio 10K.3 drive is ideally suited for use in high-end network storage applications. The SAS
2.0 feature set and 6-Gb/s transfer rate support larger topologies by connecting more expanders, host bus adapters and RAID controllers within or across more storage arrays, by communicating over longer distances with high signal integrity, and by moving data two times faster, thereby doubling data throughput.
Government-grade security available*
Delivering on the Seagate commitment to add security features throughout its product portfolio, the Savvio 10K.3 drives are offered with an SED option that provides government-grade data-at­rest protection through each drive’s entire life cycle.*
