Affordable Active Archive Hard Drives for Cloud Storage
The Seagate Archive HDD 8TB is a high capacity, energy efficient and lower cost
hard drive for active archive purposes. The drive comes with impressive burst
results but lower sustained write results, which are to be expected in this
class of SMR drives. The drives are intended for use in large-scale data centres
where density, power consumption, data integrity and data retrieval are
paramount.
- Efficiently store more data at lower costs with this low cost/GB/watt, 8TB hard drive
- Enjoy peace a mind with a drive engineered for 24×7 workloads of 180TB per year
- Keep your costs down with up to 1.33TB-per-disk hard drive technology
- Store your data faster with SATA 6Gb/s interface that optimizes burst performance
- Have confidence with a drive that provides reliable, low-power data retrieval based on * Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) technology
