Who Makes a Good Hard Drive That’s Optimized for Video Surveillance?
The Seagate SkyHawk 4 terabyte (TB) hard drive from Dahua Technology (part number DAH ST4000VX16) is designed for 24/7 surveillance-optimized hard drive applications.
The hard drive is engineered for workloads up to 180 TB per year, and each drive supports 64 cameras.
Includes SkyHawk Health Management to assess drive health and send alerts to potential issues before they happen. The result is proactive troubleshooting that makes prevention, intervention, and recovery possible. Deploying a drive with remote health monitoring software also allows integrators to provide a value-added service for maintenance contracts that can drive reoccurring monthly revenue.
Other important features include low power consumption and startup current, as well as tarnish-resistant components to minimize environmental effects.
