Seagate ST600MM0099

Overview

The Seagate ST600MM0099 is an enterprise-class internal hard drive designed to deliver 600GB of storage capacity within a compact 2.5-inch form factor. It operates at a spindle speed of 10,000 RPM and connects via a 12Gb/s SAS interface, providing fast and reliable data access for servers and storage arrays. This drive is optimized for environments with demanding workloads such as virtualized hosts, transactional databases, and mail servers, where consistent performance and data security are critical.

Key features

• High-speed 10,000 RPM spindle speed ensures quick and predictable access to data, reducing latency in demanding applications.
• 256MB cache combined with Seagate Enhanced Caching technology accelerates write-heavy workloads and improves queue clearing for small file transactions.
• Seagate Secure hardware-based encryption and secure erase capabilities help protect sensitive data and simplify drive retirement or redeployment.
• PowerChoice technology dynamically adjusts power consumption, allowing the drive to enter lower power states during off-peak hours to save energy without compromising performance during busy periods.
• Compact 2.5-inch size fits easily into high-density chassis, making it suitable for blade enclosures, hyperconverged nodes, and traditional RAID configurations.
• Designed specifically for write-intensive enterprise workloads, supporting applications that require consistent throughput and reliability.

Connectivity and compatibility

This drive uses a 12Gb/s SAS interface, which supports high-bandwidth connections to enterprise-grade backplanes and controllers. It is compatible with standard SAS backplanes found in many server and storage systems, allowing straightforward integration with minimal cabling changes. The 2.5-inch form factor also ensures compatibility with dense storage enclosures and blade servers.

Performance and reliability

The combination of a 10,000 RPM spindle speed and a large 256MB cache helps maintain smooth performance under heavy workloads. Seagate Enhanced Caching optimizes write operations, which is especially beneficial for applications that generate many small files or require frequent data logging. The drive’s power management features reduce energy consumption without sacrificing responsiveness, supporting efficient data center operations.

Ideal uses and environments

This hard drive is well suited for enterprise environments that demand reliable and secure storage with fast access times. It fits well in virtualized data centers, transactional database servers, and mail servers where write-intensive workloads are common. Its small form factor and power-saving features make it a strong choice for high-density server racks and hyperconverged infrastructure setups.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
