Seagate SkyHawk 3.5-Inch Internal Surveillance Hard Drive
Perfect for SMB-surveillance DVR and NVR

Overview:

Smart. Safe. Secure. Surveillance-Optimized Storage

Seagate SkyHawk™ leverages Seagate's extensive experience in designing drives purpose-built for surveillance applications.

Key Advantages

• ImagePerfect™ firmware is designed to ensure seamless video footage capture in 24×7 surveillance workloads¹ that record video from 64 HD cameras.
• SkyHawk Health Management actively helps protect your surveillance storage by focusing on prevention, intervention, and recovery options.² Included is RAID RapidRebuild™, which provides 3× faster volume rebuilds over traditional RAID rebuilds.
• RV sensors built in allow drives to maintain performance in multi-bay systems, giving customers the flexibility to scale their systems when more storage is needed.
• ATA streaming support enables recordings from up to 64 HD cameras for smooth, uninterrupted footage.
• Up to 14TB or over 9345 hours³ of HD video storage support an increased number of HD cameras and allows longer data retention periods.
• 1M hours MTBF, 3-year limited warranty⁴ represents an improved total cost of ownership (TCO) with reduced maintenance costs.
• Lower power consumption means a reduction in heat emissions, which improves reliability in surveillance solutions. Tarnish-resistant components help protect drive from environmental elements, increasing field reliability.
• Unparalleled data protection with an optional 2-year Rescue Data Recovery Services plan, providing access to Seagate's secure labs with industry-leading data recovery success rates.

Best-Fit Applications

• Network video recorders (NVR)
• Embedded surveillance DVRs (SDVR)
• Hybrid surveillance DVRs
• Surveillance DVRs

¹ SkyHawk surveillance drives are designed for always-on workloads of 180TB/year. For higher transaction workloads, see Seagate’s enterprise-class drive offerings.
² Contact your Seagate sales representative for further information.
³ Calculated based on H.264, 1M pixels, medium quality, 15FPS, 1 camera, and 24 hours of recording/day.

SkyHawk Health Management:

Actively protect your surveillance footage.

Seagate SkyHawk™ Health Management (SHM) is designed for Hikvision systems with NVR 4.0 OS, and goes beyond industry standard S.M.A.R.T. testing to provide in-depth analysis with prevention and intervention in mind. SHM analytic algorithms analyze various drive parameters and provide users with firsthand drive health information. SHM software works with Skyhawk and SkyHawk AI 4TB and above.

• Prevention
  Software monitors environmental and usage conditions, and recommends preventative actions if necessary.
• Intervention
  Adaptive algorithms analyze hundreds of critical drive health parameters related to overall performance and reliability.
• Recovery
  Access to optional Seagate Rescue Data Recovery Services ensures a secure environment in the event of failure.

The Combined Advantage of Seagate and Hikvision is Protection

Delivering Best-in-class NVR-optimized hard drives built for surveillance
