Seagate Technology has launched its first 2TB enterprise-class disk drive as part of a new family of near-line SAS and SATA drives.
The new Constellation 2.5 inch and Constellation ES 3.5-inch drives come in Serial-Attached SCSI (SAS) 6Gbits/sec or Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gbits/sec models and include a feature that allows them to shut down when not in use to save power.
Western Digital was the first to release a 2TB drive , but it was a SATA drive aimed at desktop and external storage applications.
