Seagate SkyHawk 2TB
Code: SGSH-2TBProduct detailed description
The Seagate SkyHawk 2TB is an internal hard drive specifically designed for surveillance and security systems operating continuously, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It offers 2 TB of capacity, a SATA III 6 Gb/s interface and CMR magnetic recording technology. It is optimized for long-term storage of video recordings from security cameras, DVR and NVR recorders, and small to medium-sized surveillance systems.
The 2 TB capacity provides space for storing video recordings from home and business security cameras. The drive supports simultaneous recording from up to 64 HD cameras, although the actual number of supported cameras and video retention time depend on their resolution, bitrate, compression and recording system settings.
ImagePerfect technology optimizes the drive firmware for continuous recording of multiple video streams. It helps minimize frame loss and maintain smooth recording in compatible surveillance systems. This makes Seagate SkyHawk suitable for environments where recording stability and reliable long-term operation are important.
The drive uses CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) technology, delivering consistent performance during sustained and repeated data writes. Combined with a 256MB cache and a maximum sustained transfer rate of 180 MB/s, it provides suitable storage for security applications requiring continuous video recording.
SkyHawk Health Management enables drive health monitoring in compatible recording systems and provides recommendations for preventive maintenance. It helps identify potential issues related to operating conditions and contributes to improved storage management. Availability of individual features depends on support from the specific device.
The 24/7-optimized design supports a workload rating of up to 180 TB per year and installation in systems with up to eight drive bays. The drive uses tarnish-resistant components and is designed for long-term deployment in surveillance recorders and security infrastructure.
Thanks to its standard 3.5" form factor and SATA III 6 Gb/s interface, the drive can be installed in compatible DVR and NVR recorders, storage devices and computer systems. The Seagate SkyHawk 2TB is a practical solution for home surveillance systems, business monitoring, building security and video archiving. The manufacturer provides a 3-year limited warranty.
