Seagate drives undergo 160+ rigorous tests to deliver high reliability in even extreme conditions. Over a 6-week period, drives are tested to check mean time between various aspects.
Temperature test
Whether it's caused by heat dissipation or overload, Seagate tests our drives at more than 75°C to ensure the drive can withstand high temperature environments and climate changes. (*Test environment varies by model).
Resonance test
Our hard drives are tested at different frequencies of vibration to simulate various conditions such as in cars, planes or other machines that produce vibrations. This also ensures the drives perform well when multiple drives work together in high-density installations.
Barometric pressure test
Tests are done at different atmospheric pressure conditions to simulate high altitude or low-pressure environments (usually to an altitude of 12,200 meters) on the performance and lifespan of the hard drive.
Humidity test
This test measures the drives' performance in different humidity environments to look for corrosion, outgassing, and contamination to ensure the drive is durable and reliable.
Impact test
Our drives are tested to withstand physical shocks or impacts such as drop tests, shock tests and vibration tests without compromising its functionality.
Noise test
This test detects the sound pressure, vibration and noise generated when the hard drive is running, for a seamless and quiet operation.
Optimized.
The Seagate SkyHawk and SkyHawk Al Video Hard Drives are purpose-built for
surveillance applications, offering smart, secure, and reliable performance for
NVR (network).
ImagePerfect™ AI
Delivers zero dropped frames while supporting heavier workloads.
RV sensors
Built in vibration sensors allow drives to maintain performance in multi-bay systems, giving customers the flexibility to scale their systems when more storage is needed
Versatile Capabilities
Intelligently adapts to the scale of your Al environment, supporting up to 64 HD video streams and 32 Al streams.
Higher Reliability
Enterprise-class, with up to 2.5M hours MTBF and up to 550TB/year workload rate that's more than 3x that of standard surveillance HDDs.
SkyHawk Health Management
Actively helps protect your surveillance storage by focusing on prevention, intervention, and recovery options. The included RAID Rapid Rebuild™️ feature provides 3x faster volume rebuilds over traditional RAID rebuilds.
Tarnish-resistant components
Help protect drive from environmental elements, increasing field reliability.
Lower power consumption
Reduction in heat emissions, which improves reliability in surveillance solutions.
Recovery Services & Warranty
Five-year limited product warranty and three-year in-house Rescue Data Recovery Services included.
Proven.
Backed by numerous industry awards and glowing testimonials from
satisfied customers, Seagate drives stand as the pinnacle of excellence.
“A lot of people don’t know that low-cost second-hand drives suffer from many problems included frequent failures and dropped frames. Tell me, what is good for a surveillance drive that does not record optimally? My suggestion is SkyHawk drives because they are designed with many features that ensure zero compromise in recording. They have a proprietary firmware called ImagePerfect that ensures zero frame drop.”
“One of my employees asked me why we are not selling grey drives because we can make a lot of profit from it. I told him what you will make in profit, you will lose in name. We are not a here today gone tomorrow business. Company has been built over years of hard work and customer trust. We sell SkyHawk drives because we know that they last for years and are packed with features that set them leagues apart from others.”
“Recently I have seen a lot of refurbished drives selling in the market. People buy them thinking of saving money. But what they don’t realise is that a SkyHawk drive can last 2-3 times longer than refurbished drives. So actually, it is more cost effective in the long run. Plus, SkyHawk is a drive purpose-built for CCTV systems unlike refurbished drives which are usually used desktop drives.”
