Less Power, More Performance

The Deskstar™ 7K1000.C hard drive is a 7200 RPM 3.5-inch hard drive that provides an 

exceptional blend of power efficiency and performance, making it an ideal solution for 

power-friendly consumer and commercial desktop computers. This third-generation 1TB 

hard drive from HGST boosts media transfer rate performance by as much as 13% over 

its predecessor. Leveraging eighth-generation power management technology, as well as 

power-saving HiVERT™ innovations pioneered on the popular 2.5-inch line of notebook hard 

drives from HGST, this new desktop drive provides up to 18% idle power savings over the 

previous model, delivering best-in-class power management and thermal emissions.  

Innovation for a More Sustainable Environment

The Deskstar 7K1000.C demonstrates HGST’s ecological leadership with its halogen-free 

design and power-efficient operation. Both these features helped qualify the drive for the 

HGST EcoTrac classification, which identifies products that minimize environmental impact 

in the areas of product design, manufacturing, operation and disposal.

Power Efficiency Supports ENERGY STAR

TM

 5.0

The ENERGY STAR 5.0 specifications released by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) are recognized around the world as a way of identifying energy-efficient PCs and 

other computer equipment. PCs that meet the ENERGY STAR 5.0 criteria are expected to 

become increasingly popular with both corporations and consumers. Some corporations are 

choosing to purchase ENERGY STAR PCs as part of their “green” initiatives. The low power 

profile of the Deskstar 7K1000.C hard drive enables a reduction in overall system power 

requirements, which helps PC manufacturers achieve ENERGY STAR ratings.
