ST250DM000 questions answered
What connection does ST250DM000 need?

Its nominal capacity is 250 GB, approximately 232.8 GiB before formatting. The filesystem, reserved space and any RAID redundancy reduce usable capacity further.
What warranty is listed for ST250DM000?
Manufacturer specification: 2 years (eligible new drives). A renewed, used, OEM or imported offer can have different coverage. Check the serial number and seller terms before buying.
