Seagate 10 TB 3.5 inch helium SAS hard drive

Seagate

Seagate ST10000NM0226 10 TB 3.5 internal hard drive SAS 12Gb/s

SKU CH-AC16-GTTDV

A helium-filled 3.5-inch enterprise hard drive delivers 10 TB over SAS 12Gb/s with 2.5M-hour MTBF and 24×7 operation

  • 20% faster random writes via Advanced Write Caching
  • Lower power and cooling costs reduce total ownership expense
  • 5M-hour MTBF supports 24×7 operation
  • Helium-sealed 3.5" design fits dense data centres
  • SAS 12Gb/s and SATA interfaces simplify integration

10 TB Enterprise Helium Hard Drive

The Seagate Enterprise Capacity 3.5 HDD V.6 delivers 10 TB of helium-sealed storage for hyperscale and high-density data centre deployments. It operates continuously with a 2.5M-hour MTBF rating and uses a wide-weld sealed design to protect data integrity around the clock.

Capacity and Headroom

The 10 TB capacity manages increasing cloud workload volumes while the advanced write caching feature boosts random write performance by 20% over the previous generation. Reduced power and cooling requirements lower total cost of ownership, although the single-port SAS 12Gb/s interface caps sustained throughput at the bus limit.

SAS 12Gb/s Interface Limits

Dual SATA and SAS interface support simplifies integration into existing enterprise chassis, yet the 12Gb/s SAS link defines the maximum data rate available to the host. Workloads demanding higher bandwidth or lower latency than the SAS bus provides will require a different storage tier or protocol.

Questions about this item

Will the 12 Gb/s SAS interface work with my older 6 Gb/s SAS backplane?

Yes, the 12 Gb/s SAS interface is backward compatible with 6 Gb/s and 3 Gb/s SAS infrastructure, allowing integration into existing hyperscale or high-density systems.

How can I verify the 2.5M-hour MTBF rating is being met after installation?

Monitor the drive's SMART attributes for reallocated sectors and temperature; consistent clean values alongside 24×7 operation indicate the enterprise-grade reliability is performing as designed.

Does the retail package include a SAS cable or mounting screws for my 3.5-inch bay?

Retail or OEM packing may vary; the drive itself is a bare 3.5-inch helium-sealed unit, so SAS cables and mounting hardware typically must be sourced separately.
