Seagate 8TB CCTV Surveillance Hard Drive

The Seagate 8TB CCTV Surveillance Hard Drive is a high-capacity storage solution designed specifically for demanding surveillance applications. With a substantial 8TB of storage, this hard drive provides ample space for recording and archiving extensive video footage from CCTV cameras, making it ideal for large-scale surveillance systems or high-definition video recording needs.

Operating at a rotational speed of 7,200 RPM, the drive ensures efficient performance with an average latency of 4.17 ms, enabling quick and reliable access to stored video data. The SATA 6Gb/s interface supports high-speed data transfer rates up to 6Gb/s, which is essential for handling large video files and maintaining smooth video streaming.

The drive is equipped with a 256MB cache, which enhances performance by buffering frequently accessed data, thereby reducing latency and improving overall system responsiveness. It uses a 512e (512-byte emulation) sector size, ensuring compatibility with both traditional and modern storage systems.

Optimized for 24/7 surveillance operation, this hard drive is built to handle continuous video streaming and high-write workloads typical of surveillance systems. It supports simultaneous recording from multiple cameras, making it well-suited for environments where constant data capture and high storage capacity are required.

With a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1 million hours and a low error rate, the drive provides long-term reliability and data integrity. It operates efficiently within a temperature range of 0°C to 50°C, accommodating typical surveillance environments.

Power consumption is managed effectively, with 8.5W during active use and 7.0W when idle, balancing performance with energy efficiency. The drive’s dimensions (1.03 inches in height, 4.00 inches in width, and 5.79 inches in depth) and weight (approximately 1.87 lbs) ensure it fits comfortably into standard CCTV system enclosures.
