Looks like the Model of the USB Enclosure rather than the drive within.

I think it's a 1TB , from an external drive, right? Looks to me like it's possibly a Maxtor DM = Diamond Max, that would be my guess.
From which country is the drive? Do you have any pictures?

Its the model of the drive. I just cant find it anywhere. Ill slap up a picture in a moment.

In response to what I actually want is if people have experienced this model before. I know what it is and where it has come from but I have never seen this model number written on a drive before.

Its a 7200.12 from an external but like I say it was odd to see the model number

Yes, I have seen one of these.

It's a 1Tb from an external Seagate "Expansion" drive

FWIW, model ST2000DL001 is a Barracuda LP. One possible interpretation is that L = 5900 RPM and M = 7200 RPM.

The serial number for the above drive was 5YDnnnnn. I haven't been able to match the "YD" against any platter/head combination in other models.
