but with higher platter density, i think seek time will somewhat be sacrificed

eg.. like servo positioning? or time needed to aligned the head to the correct tracks due to tighter margins?

i just found out that samsung's F1 series uses 334GB platter

that means 1TB only uses 3 platters.. along with 1.2mill hours mtbf.. putting it along the reliability of enterprise drives

how does increased platter density will boost lifespan and durability of the HDD?
