Questions about this item

Will the 32 MB cache need any maintenance or replacement over time?

The 32 MB cache is built into the drive's controller board and requires no separate maintenance or replacement during the drive's operational life.

What limit appears first when the 7200 RPM drive runs under sustained heavy write loads?

Sustained write performance will be constrained by the mechanical 7200 RPM platter speed and the SATA interface throughput before any other factor.
