HP PV943A hard drive specifications

HP hard drive - 500 GB - SATA-300

Serial ATA Hard Drives maximize the performance of HP Workstations by providing the technologies to meet your increasing storage demands. These high-capacity drives offer superior reliability and performance. Serial ATA is the next generation ATA interface. It provides faster data transfer speeds, better system cooling airflow, more bandwidth, more headroom for speed increases in future generations and better data integrity helping to improve productivity. A next-generation technology, Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) interface connects hard drives to the PC platform. SATA point-to-point topology provides a direct path between the hard drive and the PC enabling easy aggregation of multiple hard drives into a single PC. This offers you the additional benefits of dedicated bandwidth, the ability to more easily identify device failures and scalability. Serial ATA 3.0-Gb/s Hard Drives offer data transfer rates of up to 3 Gb per second doubling your interface speed over SATA 1.5-Gb/s Hard Drives.
