What To Consider When Choosing a SCSI-1 Internal Hard Disk Drive with Hot Swap? 

Internal hard disk drives, or HDDs, are an important part of laptop and desktop computers. These drives allow you to store data including pictures, videos, music, text documents, and more. SCSI hard drives are one of the most popular types of drives for personal computers. Seagate makes a wide array of these SCSI drives. They are available with many different amounts of storage space, so you can find an HDD that suits your specific needs as a user. 

What is the Difference Between a SCSI Hard Drive and Other Types of Hard Drives?

SCSI stands for small computer system interface. Other popular hard drives include the ATA and SATA hard drives. Both SCSI and SATA hard drives work in a variety of laptop and desktop computers, but SCSI drives are compatible with nearly any Apple computer, while ATA and SATA hard drives are more commonly used with Windows computers. SCSI disk drives are typically slightly smaller and more lightweight than SATA hard drives. Both SATA and SCSI HDDs spin at comparable  RPMs, and both can be used to create RAID storage systems. RAID storage systems consist of multiple HDDs put together to create a single unit for large amounts of storage. One of the main things that sets SCSI hard drives apart from SATA or ATA drives is the way they connect to the computer. Most computers feature internal connectors for one type of drive but not the others. 

What Does it Mean if a Hard Drive Is Hot Swap Capable? 

If a drive is hot swap capable, this means that it is possible to remove the drive and replace it with a new one while the computer is still powered on, or hot. Drives that are not hot swap capable may become damaged if you remove them while the computer is still on. Hot swap capability makes it easy to ensure that the drive is properly connected, because you can view whether or not the disk element is spinning, and thus properly connected. It also makes it easy to quickly and easily judge if it is spinning at its intended RPM. 

How Much Storage Spaee do SCSI-1 Internal Hard Disk Drives with Hot Swap Have? 

These Seagate drives come with varying amounts of storage space. Some of these disk style SCSI-1 hard drives can store up to 900 GB of data. There are also SCI-1s that can store 600 GB of data. For those who do not need as much storage space, you can also find these drives in 300 GB, 150 GB, and even 75 GB varieties.
