Best-Performing, Highest-Capacity Storage for 1- to 8-Bay NAS Systems
Ideal for small business servers or home video and central storage, the Seagate NAS HDDs are built and tested to provide industry-leading performance for small 1- to 8-bay NAS systems. Expect always-on, 24x7 reliability and the NASWorks technology features that simplify your installation, customize error recovery controls, and fine-tune power management and vibration tolerance. Available in capacities up to 6TB.
Industry-Leading Performance
Built and tested to provide industry-leading performance, NAS HDDs are fine-tuned to quickly and reliably support home and business applications. With streaming support for large video and multi-user profiles, Seagate NASWorks reliably delivers best-in-class performance demanded by NAS solutions.
NAS Works, With NASWorks
NASWorks includes features such as extended error recovery controls, minimized vibration and advanced power management. Furthermore, NASWorks improves drive health, performance, and the 24x7 reliability demanded in 1- to 8- bay systems.
NASWorks: Ensuring DriveHealth in RAID Arrays
NAS error recovery controls help ensure drives maintain the highest data integrity without compromising system performance. Working together with RAID array, NAS error recovery controls protect your data where traditional desktop HDDs may fail, and cause the RAID to start the time-consuming task of rebuilding the entire drive.
NASWorks: Enabling Performance in Multi-Drive Environments
Standard desktop drives can emit vibrations that become amplified in systems with two or more drives, compromising performance and data integrity. With the support of NASWorks dual-plane balance, drive vibrations are dampened and can perform consistently and reliably in applications with one to eight drives.
Highest-Capacity NAS HDD
You can maximize your storage and minimize costs with up to 6TB on a single NAS HDD—that's enough for up to 800 thousand photos, one million songs, or 500 hours of HD video content at home. Or, it's enough space to store CAD files, images, and databases at the office.
MSY has the newer Seagate IronWolf NAS 4TB drive for $219 (below). I would recommend local stock and newer product for the sake of $25 (mailing a broken HDD to the states is just annoying!)
