Seagate Exos X16 10TB SATA 7200RPM 3.5-Inch Enterprise Internal Hard Drive ST10000NM001G

10 TB enterprise hard drive

The Seagate Exos X16 is a 10 TB 3.5-inch internal hard drive built for continuous operation in desktop and server environments. It targets administrators who need high-capacity storage for hyperscale, cloud or big-data workloads. The helium-sealed design reduces power draw and weight compared with conventional air-filled drives.

SATA 6 Gb/s interface and 512e/4Kn formatting

The drive connects through a standard SATA 6 Gb/s port and supports both 512e and 4Kn sector formats via FastFormat. It fits any 3.5-inch bay that provides SATA data and power cables, freeing PCIe slots for other expansion cards. Digital environmental sensors monitor internal conditions to maintain consistent performance.

7200 RPM spindle with 10 TB capacity

At 7200 RPM the drive delivers sustained throughput suited to RAID arrays, distributed file systems such as Hadoop or Ceph, and enterprise backup or surveillance recording. The 10 TB capacity handles large sequential datasets, while the 24×7 rating ensures reliability under constant load. Workloads demanding lower latency or higher IOPS will require solid-state storage.
