Best-Fit Applications

• Network video recorders (NVR)
• Embedded surveillance DVRs (SDVR)
• Hybrid surveillance DVRs
• Surveillance DVRs

Record Smarter

ImagePerfect Firmware
Built Tough. Stays Cool. Surveillance-optimized firmware improves reliability by up to 30% over traditional desktop drives.

Built Tough
3× the workload rating of desktop drives—up to 180TB/year.

Stays Cool
SkyHawk drives use less power and generate less heat for extra-long lifecycles.

Stay Safer

SkyHawk drives are ideal for the booming NVR market and RAID environments. Rotational vibration (R/V) sensors along with low power consumption and heat output ensure consistent performance in multi-drive enclosures.

Features

ImagePerfect firmware supports 24x7 surveillance-optimized workloads tuned to record ~90% of the time and play back video footage the remaining 10%, and supports more cameras recording at higher resolutions than traditional drives.

Workload rating of 180TB/year allows SkyHawk to perform reliably in write-intensive surveillance systems - 3x the workload rating of a desktop-class drive.

Rotational vibration (RV) sensors allow drives to maintain performance in RAID and multi-drive systems, giving customers the flexibility to grow with the booming NVR market and scale their systems when more storage is needed.

ATA streaming support sustains recordings from up to 64 HD cameras for smooth, uninterrupted footage.

Up to 10TB or over 2000 hours of HD video storage supports an increased number of cameras and helps to ensure longer data retention periods are met. 

1M hours MTBF represents an improved total cost of ownership (TCO) with reduced maintenance costs.

Lower power consumption means a reduction in heat emissions, which improves reliability in surveillance solutions.

Tarnish-resistant components help protect drive from environmental elements, increasing field reliability.
