Seagate today began worldwide shipments of a power-thrifty desktop hard drive family that combines the largest storage capacity available with the high power efficiency. The new line of Seagate Barracuda LP (Low Power) hard drives helps reduce system power costs, runs quieter than traditional drives and operates at lower temperatures, extending the life of system components.
