Smart, safe and secure, Seagate SkyHawk HDDs are engineered for 24×7 video recording. They feature 3× the workload rating of desktop drives and can store up to 10,000 hours of digital video on capacities up to 10TB.
- ImagePerfect firmware supports 24×7 surveillance-optimized workloads tuned to record ~90% of the time and play back video footage the remaining 10%, supports more cameras recording at higher resolutions.
- Up to 10TB or over 2000 hours of HD video storage.
- ATA streaming support sustains recordings from up to 64 HD cameras for smooth, uninterrupted footage.
- 1M hours MTBF, 3-year limited warranty, improved total cost of ownership, reduces maintenance costs.
- Workload rating of 180TB/year, perform reliably in write-intensive surveillance systems.
- NVR-ready design allows drives to maintain performance in RAID and multi-drive systems.
- Lower power consumption reduces heat emissions, improves reliability in surveillance solutions.
- Tarnish-resistant components help protect drive from environmental elements, increasing field reliability.
Optimized for Surveillance
Surveillance recording demands sustained performance over time. A minute missed
can mean money lost—or worse. SkyHawk drives are engineered for always-on
recording in harsh environments, ensuring you’ll have the footage you need
when you need it.
ImagePerfect Firmware
Surveillance-optimized firmware improves reliability by up to 30% over
traditional desktop drives.
Built Tough
3× the workload rating of desktop drives—up to 180TB/year.
Stays Cool
SkyHawk drives use less power and generate less heat for extra-long
lifecycles.
Stay Safer
SkyHawk drives are ideal for the booming NVR market and RAID environments.
Rotational vibration (R/V) sensors along with low power consumption and heat
output ensure consistent performance in multi-drive enclosures.
