These drives are having the "ES" moniker that stands for "Enterprise
Storage" - from Seagate's site: "Barracuda ES and ES.2 enterprise
drives are designed for RAID and nearline applications where high
capacity, high reliability, low power consumption and tolerance to
rotational vibration (RV) are primary requirements."
