The Seagate Exos M 30 TB hard disk drive is engineered for enterprise-grade storage solutions, delivering substantial capacity and robust performance to meet demanding data center requirements. Operating at a spindle speed of 7200 RPM, this 3.5-inch Serial ATA drive combines high-speed data access with a large 512 MB buffer to facilitate efficient data transfer and caching. Its design emphasizes reliability and durability, making it suitable for continuous operation in critical environments.
With a massive storage capacity of 30,000 GB, the Exos M supports extensive data storage needs, ideal for applications such as cloud storage, big data analytics, and archival systems. The Serial ATA interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of server and storage platforms, providing ease of integration into existing infrastructures.
Key performance attributes include a sustained transfer rate of 262 MB/s and an average transfer rate of 275 MB/s, enabling swift data handling and minimizing bottlenecks during intensive read/write operations. The drive’s average latency of 4.16 ms further contributes to responsive system performance.
Designed for enterprise reliability, the Exos M features a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 2,500,000 hours, reflecting its capability to operate continuously with minimal risk of failure. The Uncorrectable Bit Error Rate (UBER) is rated at less than 1 per 1015 bits read, underscoring the drive’s data integrity standards.
Additional features include hot-swap capability, allowing for maintenance or replacement without system downtime, which is critical in maintaining operational continuity in enterprise environments.
