5 HARD DRIVE DATA SHEET

Smart. Safe. Secure.

Surveillance-Specialised Storage

SkyHawk ™ leverages Seagate's extensive experience in designing

drives purpose-built for surveillance applications.

Key Advantages
ImagePerfect™ firmware is designed to ensure seamless video footage capture in
24×7 surveillance workloads1 that record video from 64 HD cameras.

SkyHawk Health Management actively helps protect your surveillance storage by

focusing on prevention, intervention, and recovery options.2 Included is RAID
RapidRebuild ™, which provides 3× faster volume rebuilds over traditional RAID
rebuilds.

Best-Fit Applications
Unparalleled data protection with included 3-year Rescue Data Recovery Services
Network video recorders (NVR) plan, helping protect important video data with Seagate's in-house data recovery
Surveillance DVRs services.

RV sensors built in allow drives to maintain performance in multi-bay systems, giving

customers the flexibility to scale their systems when more storage is needed.

ATA streaming support enables recordings from up to 64 HD cameras for smooth,

uninterrupted footage.

1 M hours MTBF, 3-year limited warranty 3 represents an improved total cost of

ownership (TCO) with reduced maintenance costs.

Lower power consumption means a reduction in heat emissions, which improves

reliability in surveillance solutions. Tarnish-resistant components help protect drive
from environmental elements, increasing field reliability.

1 SkyHawk surveillance drives are designed for always-on workloads of 180 TB/year. For higher transaction workloads, see Seagate’s
enterprise-class drive offerings.
2 Contact your Seagate sales representative for further information.
3 Seagate does not recommend operating at sustained extreme temperatures. Operating at higher temperatures will reduce the useful life
of the products.
