Seagate Exos X20 3.5" 18TB, 7200 RPM, 256MB, SAS Hard Drive, Enterprise

The Seagate Exos X20 is an enterprise-class hard drive designed for high-density storage applications within servers and data centers. With a capacity of 18 TB in a standard 3.5-inch form factor, it addresses the requirements of large-scale data storage. The drive operates on a SAS 12 Gb/s interface, providing a high-throughput connection suitable for enterprise-level system backplanes. It is constructed for sustained 24/7 operation to ensure consistent availability in mission-critical environments.

Internal performance is managed by a 7200 RPM spindle speed and a 256 MB multi-segmented cache, contributing to an average latency of 4.16 ms. This configuration allows for sustained read speeds of up to 272 MB/s, supporting efficient handling of sequential data workloads. For long-term reliability, the drive features a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2.5 million hours. It also includes integrated end-to-end data protection to safeguard data integrity during transfer.
