Key Features
Application
A concise statement of the intended or most suitable use cases for a product, such as the type of environment (indoor or outdoor), activity (gaming, office work, media consumption) or general application category. It helps customers quickly determine whether the item fits their needs.
Surveillance
Buffer
The amount of data that a device can temporarily store in its internal memory before processing or transferring it. The value is expressed with a digital capacity unit (e.g., kilobytes, megabytes). This attribute helps understand the performance and efficiency of hardware when handling information streams.
256 MB
Capacity
The total amount of space or volume that a product can hold, expressed in an appropriate unit such as GB, MB, TB for digital storage or L, ml, cl for liquid capacity. This attribute helps users compare how much content a device or container can accommodate.
6291456 MB
Component for
Specifies the type of device or system that the product is intended to be used with, such as a PC, server, notebook, surveillance system, or other electronic equipment. The value represents a single category and can be used to filter or group products by their target platform.
Surveillance system
Depth
The linear measurement of an object from front to back or top to bottom, expressed in a physical unit such as millimeters, centimeters, inches, etc. It indicates how deep the item is and can be used for fitting, compatibility, or spatial planning.
147 mm
Drive Connection
A list of the physical or logical interfaces that a hard drive uses to connect with other components, such as SATA, M.2 PCIe, U.2, SAS, NVMe, USB, or other standard connections. The values are comma‑separated and represent the supported connection types for the drive.
SATA III
Drive Size
The physical form factor or dimension of a storage drive, expressed as a size in inches (e.g., "2.5"", "3.5""), an M.2 module designation (e.g., "M.2 2280"), or a memory card type (e.g., "SD Card", "microSDXC"). This attribute helps users determine compatibility with bays, enclosures, and devices that accept specific drive sizes.
3.5"
Drive type
The classification of a storage device’s mechanical or solid‑state nature, such as Internal, External, Portable, Motorized, Manual, SSD, HDD, Blu‑ray Writer, etc. It indicates how the drive is mounted and operated within or outside a system.
Internal
HDD Capacity
The total amount of digital storage that an internal hard drive can hold, expressed as a numeric value with an appropriate unit such as GB, MB, or TB. This attribute helps users understand how much data the device’s built‑in hard drive can store and compare storage options across products.
6000 GB
HDD interface transfer rate
The highest theoretical speed at which a hard disk drive can send or receive data over its interface, expressed in bits per second (bps) or multiples such as kbps, mbps, gbps, etc. This value represents the upper bound of throughput under optimal conditions and is useful for comparing performance across different drives and interfaces.
6 Gbit/s
HDD speed
The number of revolutions per minute (RPM) at which a hard‑disk drive’s spindle turns, indicating the drive’s data access performance and endurance characteristics.
7200 RPM
HDD sustained transfer rate
The average speed at which a storage device can read or write data under typical operating conditions, expressed in megabytes per second (MiB/s). This value reflects the sustained throughput that users can expect during continuous data transfers.
195 MiB/s
Height
The vertical dimension of a product measured from its lowest to highest point. It is expressed in a physical unit such as millimetres, centimetres or inches and applies to any item where height is relevant, including books, electronics, furniture and other objects.
26.1 mm
Interface
The physical or logical interface used by a device to connect with other components, such as USB, PCI Express, SATA, Ethernet, Thunderbolt, DisplayPort, or similar standards. It indicates the technology that enables data transfer and power delivery between the product and its peripherals.
Serial ATA III
Operating voltage
The electrical voltage that a device is designed to operate at, expressed in volts (V). It may represent a single nominal value or a range indicating the minimum and maximum supply voltages compatible with the product. This attribute helps users verify that their power source matches the device’s requirements.
5 / 12 V
PC Interface
List of physical or logical interfaces that a personal computer can use to connect with other devices, such as SATA, USB, PCI Express, Ethernet, Thunderbolt, and DisplayPort. Each value represents an interface standard supported by the PC.
SATA
Power consumption (StandBy) 0.6 W
Quantity
Represents the count of individual units or pieces included in a product offering. It indicates how many separate items are available for purchase or use, such as the number of components in a bundle, the quantity of devices in a set, or the amount of consumables supplied. The value is an integer without any unit of measure.
20
Start-up current
The electrical current drawn by a device when it first powers on, expressed in amperes (A). It represents the initial surge of current required to start the product and can help users assess power supply compatibility or identify potential overload risks.
2 A
Start/stop cycles
The total count of times a device can be powered on and off during its expected lifetime or usage period. This value helps users gauge the durability and reliability of the product, especially for appliances that are frequently started and stopped.
300000
Storage type
The technology or media format used for internal or external data storage, such as hard disk drives (HDD), solid‑state drives (SSD), eMMC, microSD cards, or combinations of these. It indicates the underlying storage medium that determines performance, capacity, and compatibility with a device.
Mechanical
Technology Type
The underlying storage medium used by the product, such as hard disk drive (HDD), solid‑state drive (SSD), or hybrid configurations. It indicates the technology that determines performance characteristics like speed, durability and capacity.
HDD
Warranty
The length of time for which the manufacturer guarantees that the product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship, typically expressed in years or months.
3 Year Manufacturer Warranty (View More Information)
Weight
The mass of the product expressed in a standard unit such as grams or kilograms. It represents how heavy the item is and can be used for shipping calculations, handling instructions, or consumer information.
