Seagate IronWolf 3.5" 8TB, 5400 RPM, 256MB, SATA III Hard Drive for NAS

The Seagate IronWolf ST8000VN002 is an 8 TB internal hard drive with a 3.5-inch form factor, engineered for use in Network Attached Storage (NAS) systems. It is constructed for continuous 24/7 operation, making it suitable for multi-drive environments in home, SOHO, and small business deployments. Integrated Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors work to mitigate vibration from adjacent drives within a single chassis, which helps to maintain consistent performance and long-term reliability. The drive is also optimized to function effectively within various RAID configurations, handling the demands of sustained data access.

Performance is managed by a 5400 RPM spindle speed and a 256 MB cache, which assists in processing data transfers efficiently. This model connects via a SATA III interface, providing a theoretical maximum transfer rate of 6 Gbit/s, while achieving sustained read and write speeds of up to 202 MB/s. The drive is rated for a workload of 180 TB per year and has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 1,000,000 hours, indicating its durability for intended use cases. It also supports S.M.A.R.T. technology, allowing for proactive monitoring of the drive's operational health and status.
