Seagate Technology
Seagate Technology on Tuesday presented its new type of hard circle drives (HDDs) for system territory stockpiling (NAS) and RAID applications. The new group of NAS HDDs from Seagate incorporates a model with 8 TB limit, which is the business' first hard drive of such kind that is focused on towards little and medium organizations and in addition individual use, i.e, 1-8 narrows NAS units.

Seagate's 8 TB 3.5-inch NAS HDD depends on six opposite attractive recording (PMR) platters with 1.33 TB limit each. The hard drive highlights 7200 cycles for every moment shaft speed, 256 MB DRAM store and a Serial ATA interface. The producer announces 216 MB/s most extreme supportable media to reserve exchange rate, which is impressively higher contrasted with past era drives. The new HDD have normal working force of 9 W and normal unmoving force of 7.2 W.

Seagate's most recent group of NAS HDDs likewise incorporates models with 6 TB, 4 TB, 3 TB, 2 TB and 1 TB limits. Hard drives with 6 TB and 8 TB limits have shaft rate of 7200 RPM, while the remaining drives highlight 5900 RPM speed.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

8TB Storage Capacity

128MB Cache (Multisegmented)
NCQ SATA III Interface
4096 Bytes per Sector

High-limit PMR platters, 7200 RPM axle speed and in addition monstrous 256 MB DRAM store will help the new 6TB and 8 TB drives to offer high irregular read execution, which ought to be valuable for NAS situations, as well as for desktops also.

Beforehand Seagate offered 8 TB drives for chronicle/nearline, endeavor limit and venture NAS applications. Such drives are streamlined for servers, racks, most extreme unwavering quality, and so forth., which includes some significant pitfalls. The new 8 TB HDD for little and medium organizations (SMBs) and in addition innovative experts are intended for tower walled in areas with one to eight coves and are basically the main hard drives with such limit that are streamlined for desktop applications. The drives are additionally completely perfect with select NAS items from organizations such as ASUSTOR, QNAP, Synology and Thecus.
