Other Hard Drive Features

Platter hard disks have a notably special construction. Inside the hard drive there is a mechanism that utilises moving platters, complete with hard disk heads that read and write the data. These moving parts are not particularly resistant against shock or impact, but on the upside, this design also delivers an affordable price tag and high storage capacity. The crucial criterion that affects the speed of a platter hard disk is the number of rotations per minute (RPM). With the Synology HAT5300-4T, you can look forward to 7200 rev/min revolutions per minute. This is great news for people who demand more from their devices, for example video editors, graphic artists, people who play PC games, and everybody else who deal with large amounts of data. Data transmission and stability is also influenced by the disk buffer, usually called cache. The Synology hard disk is equipped with a 256 MB cache that keeps the last written data for their speedy reading.

Connecting the Synology Hard Drive

If you want to install the Synology HAT5300-4T in the device of your choice, it requires a 3.5" slot. All data transfer happens using the SATA III interface with a speed of 3 Gbit/s. This technology is one of the most popular HDD data transfer solutions available and delivers a throughput of 600 MB/s.
