ST2000LM007 – 2TB Seagate BarraCuda 2.5-Inch Hard Drive for Laptops and Portable Storage
The Seagate BarraCuda ST2000LM007 is a 2TB 2.5-inch SATA hard drive aimed at resellers and system integrators serving the laptop repair, portable external storage, and compact NAS build markets. Its 7mm slim profile fits thin-and-light chassis where standard 9.5mm drives do not, and the 5400 RPM spindle suits sequential workloads such as backup, media storage, and secondary drive upgrades. Note that as a mechanical drive it will trail any SATA SSD in random I/O, so position it on cost-per-terabyte rather than speed.
Key specifications (table)
| Parameter | Specification |
| Model | ST2000LM007 |
| Series | Seagate BarraCuda (mainstream/consumer family, distinct from IronWolf NAS and SkyHawk surveillance lines) |
| Capacity | 2TB (2000GB) |
| Interface | SATA 6Gb/s |
| Form Factor | 2.5-inch, 7mm ultra-slim profile (check enclosure/laptop bay thickness before ordering) |
| Spindle Speed | 5400 RPM (prioritizes power efficiency over throughput) |
| Cache | 128 MB |
| Data Transfer Rate | Up to 140 MB/s (sequential, workload dependent) |
| MTBF | 600,000 hours (guidance only, not a warranty term) |
| Average Power Consumption | 1.7W (read/write) |
Good to know
- The SATA 6Gb/s interface is backward compatible with earlier SATA generations, though link speed will be limited by the host controller; confirm 2.5-inch bay height tolerance given the 7mm profile.
- Within the BarraCuda line this sits as the portable/mainstream class — customers needing 24/7 NAS duty should be quoted IronWolf, and surveillance builds SkyHawk, instead.
- For bulk procurement, verify carton-level lot consistency and request current stock firmware revision before committing to large replacement or refurbish orders.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
