Relatively high price
The area in which Seagate FireCuda ST2000LX001 shines is neither data transfer speed nor the “dry” synthetic benchmarks. The purpose of the product is to deliver speeds similar to those of an SSD, which the user will appreciate. It namely gives you faster...
Low cost per GB compared to SSD, 5-year warranty, Good for games consoles
Laptop 2.5-inch disk market has collapsed, Feels like a 5,400rpm laptop drive too often, Improvements in cloud and external storage diminish usefulness
