About this product
The Seagate Barracuda 300 GB Ultra ATA/100 Internal Hard Drive (ST3300831A-RK) is the boxed retail kit of Seagate's ST3300831A, a 3.5-inch desktop hard drive of the Barracuda 7200.8 PATA family.[2][3] The drive stores 300 GB on a 7,200 rpm spindle with an 8 MB cache and connects over Parallel ATA at up to 100 MB/s in Ultra DMA mode 5.[3] Seagate sold its 8 MB cache Ultra ATA/100 kits with an interface cable, DiscWizard installation and SeaTools diagnostic software, a quick installation guide and mounting screws, backed by a five-year warranty covering parts and labour.[4]
Its 16 MB cache sibling of the same capacity is the ST3300631A-RK, which Seagate's late-2005 retail range listed as its 300 GB Ultra ATA/100 kit.[3][5] US resellers of legacy drives still list the ST3300831A-RK.[1]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.
- Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
- contents evidence: 6 / 6 · Recorded rows linked to source evidence; does not measure whether the list is complete
- Context: 1 / 1 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
- Label photographs: 0 / 1 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
- Specifications: 8 / 18 · Recorded specifications mapped to comparable property keys
- identity · unknown: Country of origin; the old Barcodepedia "Produced in Switzerland" line was generated from the barcode prefix
- identity · unknown: Production status: Seagate's retail range page listed the 16 MB ST3300631A-RK as its 300 GB Ultra ATA/100 kit from November 2005, and no dated end-of-life notice for this kit was located
- identity · disputed: The barcode ties to ST3300831A-RK only through the archived 2008 Barcodepedia page; an eBay.ca listing (item 131824562182) shows 763649001448 on a Momentus 5400.6 ST950032AS circuit board, most likely a copied code
- relationships · disputed: The GS1 prefix owner rests on Seagate being the brand owner of three kits in the 0763649 block; no source names the prefix holder or its length
- markets · unknown: Other markets: only a US reseller listing was matched; Best Buy (SKU 6784394), Memory4Less and Mega Devices (UK) pages could not be read
- images · unknown: No licensed photograph of the retail box
- evidence · stale: Evidence was observed over a year ago; check for newer labels. Historical evidence remains valid.
- images · not_researched: No product photographs recorded.
- schema · schema_gap: Some specifications retain source labels without comparable property keys.
