About the Barracuda 180
The Barracuda 180's best-in-class specifications are focused on maintaining Seagate's high levels of quality and reliability, important factors when storing business-critical information. The Barracuda 180 has a low idle power consumption rating of less than 10.3 watts and also incorporates a low acoustic rating of 3.7 Bels making it the quietest half-height disc drive ever. The Barracuda 180 is currently available in the Ultra160 SCSI interface with a 2-Gbits-per-second Fibre Channel model available at a later date. Additionally, the Barracuda 180 incorporates an exclusive Rotational Vibration Protection System that monitors and reduces or eliminates any possible head positioning errors resulting from rotational vibration within a server cabinet or mounting system. The Barracuda 180, like all of Seagate's high-end enterprise-class drives, includes a full 5-year warranty as well as a Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) rating of 1,200,000 hours.
