Seagate Terascale 8TB 3.5" 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s Enterprise Internal HDD

The Seagate ST8000NC0002 is an internal 3.5-inch hard drive that delivers 8 TB of enterprise-grade storage for servers, network-attached arrays, and high-capacity workstations. It connects through a SATA 6 Gb/s interface, so it drops straight into standard backplanes or desktop bays without special cabling.

A spindle speed of 7,200 RPM, paired with a 256 MB cache, supports sustained data transfers up to 249 MB/s. That combination helps virtual machines start quickly, large media files move smoothly, and backup windows finish on time. When workloads taper off, PowerChoice settings let administrators lower power draw to curb operating costs in data centers that run day and night.

The drive is engineered for continuous operation. Vibration-dampening firmware keeps stacks of drives in multi-bay enclosures running smoothly, and advanced error-correction algorithms guard data integrity during heavy read-write cycles. Whether you are consolidating video archives, expanding a file server, or building out a private cloud, the ST8000NC0002 offers the capacity and endurance that 24/7 environments demand.
