Samsung Spinpoint F1 Hard Disk Drive
Industrys First Three-disk Solution for Terabyte Storage
The Samsung Spinpoint F1 drive offers a superior combination of density, recording quality and reliability.
Better Reliability, Less Energy Consumption Than Other Options
The Samsung Spinpoint F1 is the first three-disk hard drive delivering a whopping 1TB of capacity along with sophisticated recording technology. With its compact, lightweight package and advanced design, the F1 drive offers many advantages for high-density applications compared to using two 500GB drives or a four- or five-disk solution. Compared to a five-disk 1TB solution, the F1 Series consumes 13-16% less power and provides up to 20% faster performance. This 3Gbps SATA drive has a maximum of 334GB of formatted capacity per disk while also featuring Samsungs industry-leading NoiseGuardTM and SilentSeekTM technologies to eliminate acoustic noise. The Spinpoint F1 utilizes Samsung-developed perpendicular recording technology, which helps the drive set new records in both areal density and platter capacity.
Special Features for High-density Applications
Servers, high-end desktops, RAID systems and DVRs are among the applications well suited to the Spinpoint F1 drive. The drive is available with desktop PC- or RAID-level reliability. Mean time between failure for RAID reliability is up to 1.2 million hours. A rotational vibration sensor enables the drive to operate more efficiently in a RAID environment. For consumer applications, a power-saving code reduces power consumption while AV-optimized firmware cuts time delays during AV data recording. In general, the Samsung drive offers a superior combination of density, recording quality and reliability.

Key Features

Reliability Beats Competition
The Spinpoint F1 requires fewer components than competing solutions while delivering enhanced reliability versus a 1TB drive with four or five disks or two 500GB disks. With fewer heads and disks, the F1 statistically has a lower probability of headdisk failures. According to estimates, this Samsung drive has a 50% lower failure rate than a two500GB-drive solution and as much as 31% fewer failures than five-platter 1TB drives.
