Viva TV chooses Exos® X 5U84 solution to meet its storage demands.
Viva TV, a Taiwanese shopping network, undertook a massive data storage reengineering project. One key requirement for this endeavor was to acquire a solution that could handle storing multiple film libraries and hundreds of gigabytes of new data every day. To meet this demand, they chose the Seagate® Exos X 5U84 storage system with highly available Exos X18 hard drives.
The Exos X 5U84—with the ability to hold up to 84 hard drives—was the right solution to meet Viva TV’s storage requirements.
Fully configured with Exos X18 18TB drives, Viva TV’s Exos X storage solution provided a raw storage capacity of up to 1.5PB so they’re ready for future growth.
At 7GB read/5.5GB write throughput, Exos X 5U84 provides the speed Viva TV needs to handle storing hundreds of gigabytes of data every day.

Since Viva TV implemented the Exos X 5U84 storage system, their perceived operational stability has significantly improved. According to their engineering team, support from both Seagate and their system integrators has been very smooth, providing Viva TV with an even greater sense of stability.
“The new storage equipment purchased in this plan will not only carry the data volume of the existing film library exceeding 300TB, but also must include all new online live program (LIVE) files in the next five years.”
