160GB 7200 RPM laptop drive
This 2.5-inch Fujitsu MHW2160BJ provides 160GB of storage for notebooks that accept a SATA 3.0Gb/s drive. Its 7200 RPM spindle speed and 8MB cache suit users replacing an older drive or adding capacity to a compatible laptop bay.
Sustained workload behaviour
The 7200 RPM spindle maintains consistent rotational speed during extended read or write sessions. An 8MB cache absorbs bursts before data reaches the platters, while average seek time of 10.5ms and average write time of 12.5ms remain steady under continuous load.
SATA 3.0Gb/s interface limits
The SATA 3.0Gb/s link caps maximum theoretical throughput at 3.0Gb/s, so sequential transfers cannot exceed that ceiling. Average latency of 4.17ms reflects the mechanical rotation delay inherent to the interface and spindle combination.

Questions about this item
How much power does the 7200 RPM drive draw when running all day?
The 2.5 inch form factor keeps power draw low for laptop use, and the SATA 3.0Gb/s interface does not require an extra power connector beyond the standard SATA power lead.
What must my laptop already have to install this bare drive?
A free 2.5 inch drive bay and a SATA data and power connection; the drive ships without cables, brackets or mounting screws.
Will the SATA 3.0Gb/s interface work with an older laptop that only supports SATA 1.5Gb/s?
Yes, the SATA link negotiates down to 1.5Gb/s automatically, so the 160GB drive will be detected and function at the slower speed.
