SKU CH-BSDN-BNZHQ

High-capacity 3.5-inch SATA hard drive spinning at 7200 rpm with 256 MB cache for massive data-centre storage

  • 14 TB capacity stores massive datasets in a single 3.5" bay
  • 7200 rpm spindle with 256 MB cache accelerates large sequential transfers
  • Helium-sealed design reduces power draw and weight per terabyte
  • PowerBalance technology optimises watts per terabyte for hyperscale efficiency
  • Seagate Secure enables fast, affordable drive retirement and data protection

Capacity and purpose

This 14 TB 3.5 inch SATA drive spins at 7200 rpm with a 256 MB cache. It is built for cloud data centres and massive scale-out deployments that need high-capacity bulk storage.

Sustained workload behaviour

Helium sealing and PowerBalance technology optimise watts per terabyte during continuous operation. Digital environmental sensors monitor internal conditions to maintain performance under heavy, long-duration transfers.

Compatibility check

Verify your system has a free 3.5 inch bay and a SATA data and power connection. The drive uses 512e/4Kn sector formatting and includes Seagate Secure features but no hardware encryption.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 14 TB helium-sealed drive draw during all-day operation?

The PowerBalance feature optimises watts per terabyte, and the helium-sealed design lowers total power consumption compared with air-filled drives of similar capacity.

Which host interface and physical bay does this 3.5-inch drive require?

It connects via a standard SATA data and power cable and fits any 3.5-inch drive bay in a desktop or server chassis.

Will the 512e/4Kn sector format work with my older SATA controller?

The drive supports both 512e and 4Kn modes, so it remains compatible with legacy controllers that expect 512-byte logical sectors.
