Enterprise 8 TB SAS drive

The Seagate Exos 7E10 ST8000NM020B is an 8 TB internal hard drive built for enterprise bulk-data workloads. It spins at 7200 RPM and connects through a SAS 12 Gb/s interface. The drive is rated for 550 TB of data written per year and carries a 2 million hour MTBF rating.

24/7 bulk storage workloads

This drive suits storage arrays, video surveillance systems and data-centre infrastructures that run continuous read-write cycles. It is not aimed at desktop PCs or laptops that lack a SAS controller or backplane, nor at users who need solid-state latency.

SAS 12 Gb/s interface

The single specification that determines compatibility is the SAS 12 Gb/s interface; the host system must provide a matching SAS controller or backplane for the drive to function.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 8 TB version or a larger capacity?

This model is the 8 TB variant; the Exos 7E10 family supports up to 10 TB per drive if you need more space.

What does the 7200 RPM rating mean for daily use?

The 7200 RPM spindle delivers sustained throughput suited for 24/7 bulk-data workloads such as storage arrays and video surveillance recording.

How does the SAS 12Gb/s interface limit real-world speed?

The SAS 12Gb/s link caps the drive’s maximum transfer rate at 12 Gb/s, so actual throughput will not exceed that ceiling.
