help Seagate Mobile HDD FAQ

Is the Seagate Mobile HDD a USB external drive?

The official Seagate Mobile HDD is a bare internal 2.5-inch SATA drive, not a complete USB enclosure. Models such as the ST2000LM007 use SATA 6Gb/s, so an external USB case would be needed for portable use.

What capacities does the Seagate Mobile HDD officially support?

Seagate's Mobile HDD data sheet lists 500GB, 1TB, and 2TB models. The 6TB capacity belongs to other Seagate external or desktop products, not the standard Mobile HDD family.

How fast is the Seagate Mobile HDD?

The 2.5-inch Mobile HDD runs at 5400 RPM and uses a SATA 6Gb/s interface. Seagate's product manual lists a maximum data transfer rate of up to 140 MB/s, depending on the model and workload.

Can the Seagate Mobile HDD be used to upgrade a laptop?

Yes, compatible laptops can use the drive as a 2.5-inch SATA storage upgrade. The drive is available in a 7mm height, but the laptop must have a matching SATA bay and support the selected capacity.
