Overview

If your recorder writes many camera streams at once, the Seagate SkyHawk ST20000VE003 pairs 20TB of CMR storage with a 512MB cache. It is a helium-sealed 3.5in LFF drive at 7200 RPM on SATA 6Gb/s, formatted 512e.

Transfer rate tops out at 285 MB/s. Seagate rates it for 550 TB per year of workload and 2,500,000 hours MTBF. Operating power is 7.8 W and idle power is 6.3 W, with a weight of 685 g. CMR recording keeps write behavior consistent when the recorder overwrites old footage with new video.

The ST20000VE003 goes into network video recorders and surveillance storage built around 3.5in SATA bays.

We supply it in New, Refurbished and Used condition. Warranty is 1 year or 3 years on New and Refurbished units, and 90 days on Used units.
