Everything you need in one package, immediately ready to:
- Backup and store your data with confidence.
- Consolidate your smaller drives.
- Organize bodies of work on separate drives for long term storage.
Examples of how this Voyager Q bundle can be used in real world situations:
Photographers / Videographers: Keep your photos and video archived and organized by using a separate drive for each volume of your work.
Small Business Applications: Backup important files at end of day and keep the drive separate from your system, either off-site or in a fire-proof safe. Keep multiple drives to have backups from any specific date if your business demands archivability.
Computer Technicians: Easily backup client data to separate disks before working on the machine without the need to utilize an enclosure. It's as easy as using an open bridge board with the protection of a full enclosure.
Home Use: Keep your pictures, financial records, scanned legal documents such as birth certificates and other personal documents safe. Backup your data to a separate drive and keep the drive in a safe or safe deposit box.
For Everyone: Have the piece of mind of a complete backup plan. Create a bootable clone of your hard drive at regular intervals so if your computer goes down, your productivity doesn't go down with it. Boot to another computer and keep on working!

The Seagate® Barracuda® 7200.12 hard drive combines proven technology and components with industry-leading manufacturing expertise to deliver
1.0 TB of sustainable desktop storage with 32-MB cache.
By combining sustainable Seagate technology and components with industry-leading volume manufacturing, this Seagate® Barracuda® 7200.12 drive delivers 1 TB of green, low-power yet high-performance, desktop storage. It embodies the highest levels
of reliability, performance and capacity. And this
latest generation is a leader in environmentally
friendly storage.
After years of pioneering research at Seagate, perpendicular recording is now a
proven technology. It increases capacity and
dependability by storing data vertically, rather
than horizontally. And vertically stored data bits
mean increased data density—which means
higher performance to increase productivity.
Key Advantages
- Sustainable technology for a green world:
- Typically 70 percent or more of the materials used to build the drive is recycled.
- Complies with the RoHS directive
- 12th generation of the world’s most popular desktop hard drive
- Ships with the most reliable and proven perpendicular magnetic recording technology
- Delivers high performance:
- 160-MB/s maximum sustained data rate
- Up to 3 Gb/s instantaneous burst
Additional Features
- Best-in-class environmental specifications and
reliability features.
- Adaptive Fly Height offers consistent read/write
performance from the beginning to the end of
your computing workload.
- Clean Sweep automatically calibrates your
drive.
- Enhanced G-Force Protection™ defends
against handling damage.
- Seagate SoftSonic™ motor enables ultra-quiet
operation.
Best-Fit Applications
- Workstations
- Desktop RAID

The Eco-Friendly Choice
The Seagate® Barracuda® 7200.12 drive delivers power
savings without sacrificing performance. Customers
can manufacture eco-friendly PC and external storage
systems that meet energy-savings requirements.
The drive combines proven technology with expert
manufacturing to deliver up to 1 TB of desktop storage.
Customers can have the best of both worlds—top harddrive
performance and a high-capacity drive with a very
small eco-footprint. Seagate minimizes the impact of
our products and operations on the environment with
efficiency measures, such as replacing or renovating
less-efficient equipment, resulting in a 20 percent
increase in production efficiency on a per-hard-drive
basis. This delivered a 158.93 million kWh savings in
six months, or enough energy to power nearly 15,000
U.S. homes for one year. Seagate also has deployed
aggressive waste minimization and recycling
programs in facilities worldwide.
Seagate hard drives have long been produced
with the environment in mind, and not just with
low power consumption. With Seagate and the
Barracuda 7200.12 drive, our customers can
have the best of both worlds—top hard-drive
performance and the satisfaction of knowing they
are using a high-capacity drive with a very small
eco-footprint.
The Barracuda product family complies with the
RoHS directive on hazardous materials. |
