Seagate Exos 7E10 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM SATA/600 Internal HDD

The Seagate ST2000NM006B is a 2 TB hard drive from the Exos 7E10 line, built for servers, storage arrays, and other systems that need dependable capacity around the clock. Fitting any standard 3.5 inch SATA bay, it connects through a SATA 6 Gb per second interface and sustains transfers up to 215 MB per second while spinning at 7200 RPM. A 256 MB cache keeps active data close to the read heads, so virtual machines, databases, and backup jobs can move quickly without waiting on the drive.

This model is engineered for heavy workloads. Seagate rates it for 550 TB written per year and a mean time between failures of 2 million hours, making it a sound choice for intensive, always-on environments. Technologies such as Super Parity and PowerBalance guard data integrity and manage power draw, while Seagate RAID Rebuild helps arrays recover faster if another drive fails. Hardware-based self encryption through Seagate Secure protects sensitive information and allows for instant, cryptographic drive retirement.

Administrators can drop the Exos 7E10 into a file server to add reliable storage, build a multi-drive RAID set for media production, or refresh disks in a surveillance archive that records nonstop. Anyone needing predictable performance, strong security, and enterprise-level durability in a SATA slot will appreciate what this drive offers.
