Description

Seagate ST24000NM002H is a 24TB enterprise-grade hard drive from the Exos X24 family, built for serious storage demands like hyperscale data centers, cloud infrastructure, and archival systems.

• Interface: SATA 6Gb/s — great for compatibility and cost-efficiency.
• Form Factor: 3.5-inch standard, helium-sealed for reduced friction and power use.
• Speed & Performance: 7200 RPM with up to 285MB/s sustained transfer rate.
• Cache: 512MB, which helps with burst performance and latency.
• Reliability: 2.5 million hours MTBF and a 5-year limited warranty — this thing is built to last.
• Security: Supports Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) and Instant Secure Erase (ISE) for safe decommissioning.
• Recording Technology: Uses CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording), which is preferred for consistent write performance.

It’s optimized for low latency, high throughput, and maximum rack-space efficiency, making it a favorite for organizations scaling up storage without sacrificing reliability or power efficiency.
