Seagate Exos X18 3.5" 14TB, 7200 RPM, 256MB, SATA III Hard Drive, Enterprise

The Seagate Exos X18 is a 14 TB enterprise-class hard drive engineered for high-capacity storage in demanding data environments. Its standard 3.5-inch form factor allows for integration into servers, network-attached storage (NAS) systems, and large-scale data center arrays. The drive operates at a spindle speed of 7200 RPM and is equipped with a 256 MB cache to facilitate consistent data throughput for complex operations. Engineered for continuous 24/7 operation, it is built to handle the sustained workloads typical of enterprise-level applications.

This model incorporates several technologies to maintain data integrity and performance under heavy use. Integrated Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors help mitigate the effects of vibration in multi-drive enclosures, ensuring stable read/write operations and predictable performance. The drive supports a workload rate of 550 TB per year and features end-to-end data protection to safeguard information from the host to the drive. Its SATA III 6 Gbit/s interface provides standard connectivity, while a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 2.5 million hours underscores its design for long-term reliability.
