What does db stand for in seagate db sata drive?

dB. Decibels, obviously.

-----------------------------------------------------

Here is a better explaination.....

Seagate is pioneering into low decibel hard drives, for example

a seagate db35 hard drive only means that "yes" the db stands for decibels but it also means that this drive will produce less sounds than other competitors "accoustics".

So for example a Western Digital Raptor, the Raptor in the name means it is ferocious or maybe faster than others? with the name given to this drive it spins at 10,000RPM compared to the normal 7,200RPM Western Digital Caviar drives have.

So the "DB" in the name that seagate gave its drives is for you to recognise easily that these drives have the following technologies that makes this drive sport the "DB" "mention"

Idle Acoustics Reduction

The following SBT features all help reduce idle acoustics:

• SeaShield-This protective cover for Seagate personal storage disc drives protects the drive and also dampens acoustic noise.

• Dampers-Seagate uses several types of foam and other damping materials in its drives to reduce acoustic noise.

• Resonance reduction-Seagate's engineers continue to optimize the interplay of drive components to reduce harmonic resonance, vibrations and other sources of mechanical noise.

• Mechanical and materials design optimization-Seagate's engineers use sophisticated design and modeling techniques, such as finite element analysis, to choose the quietest possible combinations of parts and materials.

• Motors-Seagate continues to hold a leadership position in the design and implementation of ultraquiet fluid dynamic bearing (FDB) motors in its disc drives, as well as high-speed, state-of-the-art ball bearing motors.

• Spin commutation-Motor noise is further reduced by using shape-optimized positive/negative voltagetransition

curve to the spindle motor stator with Seagate's sinusoidal driver current.

This last bold paragraph, this technology is ONLY implemented in the DB series of Seagates drives.

What is the firing order on a Aston Martin 12cyl vanquish?

According to Wikipedia: Aston Martin's 6.0L (really more like 5.9L) V12 engine has an uneven firing order as opposed to an even firing order. The Mercedes AMG built V12 engines also share an uneven firing order. I can't say for a fact but my guess is it fires very similarly to the one pictured here: http://www.justanswer.com/mercedes/2mp9d-2001-mercedes-s600-when-rpm-s-reach-car.html

Why is the Aston Martin so expensive?

The Aston Martin is almost entirely hand built, with the best materials available. The machine is designed as a high performance sports car that is fast, maneuverable, reliable and will not wear out for many years. I believe it was an answer to the Italian's models- the Ferrari, Maserati, etc. so the quality had to be very high, to compete in that circle.
