Seagate announced its new Enterprise 3.5 Capacity 10 TB HDD, and aside from the obvious advantage of the 25 percent increase in capacity, it also comes with the addition of a helium architecture.
Seagate is keeping many of the details of its latest addition secret for now; the company did not reveal the spindle speed (RPM), though one would assume it is the standard 7,200 rpm typically found in the nearline HDD space. The company also is not revealing any performance metrics or the amount of cache employed, and it is possible that the drive employs two distinct types of cache.
