Seagate on Monday announced a new lineup of enterprise storage drives that aim to cut power consumption. Seagate’s latest additions to its Constellation family of enterprise drives come just as units have plunged in its fiscal second quarter.
The company is rolling out two new drive models, the 2.5-inch Constellation and the 3.5-inch Constellation ES drives. The main pitch is that the new lineup will reduce power consumption in data centers.
The 2.5-inch Constellation will have capacities ranging from 160 gigabytes (GB) and 500 GB. The 3.5 Constellation ES comes in 500 GB, 1 terabyte (TB) and 2 TB. The Constellation family ships this quarter. Seagate’s Barbara Craig, senior product marketing manager, said that the drives are designed to offer a smaller footprint, cut energy consumption and be more stackable in tight data centers. “The new drives basically cut power in half,” said Craig
