The Seagate SkyHawk ST6000VX009 is a 3.5" internal hard drive built for continuous surveillance workloads. It offers 6 TB of capacity, a 256 MB buffer and a Serial ATA III interface with a 6 Gbit/s transfer rate, so you can store large volumes of video footage in a single drive.
Designed for always-on recording, this drive supports 24/7 operation and handles a workload rate limit of 180 TB/year. It supports up to 64 cameras and includes rotational vibration sensors to help maintain performance in multi-drive surveillance systems. The sustained transfer rate reaches up to 180 MiB/s.
Reliability figures include a 1,000,000-hour MTBF, an uncorrectable bit error rate of less than 1 per 10^14 bits read and a start/stop cycle rating of 600,000. Power consumption is 5.3 W during operation, 3.4 W in standby and 0.25 W when powered off, with an operating voltage of 5 / 12 V and a start-up current of 1.8 A.
