Seagate Exos X24 16TB 7200RPM 3.5" SATA Enterprise HDD

The Seagate SkyHawk AI 12TB 3.5″ Surveillance HDD is a high-capacity and high-performance storage drive purpose-built for modern video security systems. Designed to support continuous 24/7 recording from multiple high-resolution cameras, this hard disk provides massive storage space and reliability tailored for demanding surveillance workloads, including those using advanced AI features.

With a generous 12 TB capacity, the SkyHawk AI drive gives you plenty of room to store weeks or months of video footage without frequent overwrites, making it ideal for businesses, homes, and large-scale monitoring environments. Its 3.5-inch form factor and SATA interface ensure easy installation in most DVRs, NVRs, and surveillance servers that support SATA HDDs.

Unlike regular desktop drives, the SkyHawk AI line is optimized for surveillance use. The firmware is tuned for write-intensive workloads generated by multiple cameras recording simultaneously, helping to reduce dropped frames and maintain smooth, uninterrupted video capture. This is especially useful for AI-enabled systems that use analytics like motion detection, object recognition, and video indexing — features that can generate heavy data streams.

Built with enhanced durability and vibration tolerance, the drive is engineered to withstand the continuous operational demands of surveillance systems. Health monitoring tools help detect early issues so you can take action before data loss occurs. Backed by Seagate’s strong reputation in storage technology, the SkyHawk AI 12TB Surveillance HDD offers a reliable and scalable solution for professional-grade video security storage.
