Seagate’s IronWolf 510 comes in a striking orange and white box with Seagate’s IronWolf wolf mascot prominently displayed along with a small image of the drive on the front. At the top of the box is a sticker which displays the drive’s capacity and the Sequential read speed of the drive. Towards the bottom of the box is some text displaying the interface of the drive.
The rear of the box is covered my multilingual bullet points about the drive being purpose-built for NAS, Sequential read/write and random read/write speeds and the fact it comes with a 2-year Rescue Plan included.
The 1.92TB IronWolf 510 is built on a dual-sided M.2 2280 format PCB.
Sitting under the product label is the Phison PS5012-E12DC controller (branded as Seagate), alongside two packages of Kioxia BiCS3 64-layer 3D TLC NAND (coded TPBHG55AIV) and one DDR4 DRAM (SK hynix H5AN8G8NCJ) chip. On the other side of the PCB are two more NAND packages and a second DRAM IC.
Phison's PS5012-E12DC is an enterprise-class controller. Built on a 28nm process, the controller features Phison's 3rd generation LDPC ECC engine and supports AES 256 bit hardware-based encryption.
