Enterprise bulk storage drive

The Seagate Exos 7E10 ST2000NM000B is a 2TB 3.5 inch internal hard drive built for 24×7 enterprise workloads. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 256MB cache and connects via a SATA 6.0Gb/s interface. The drive is designed for high-capacity bulk data applications in mainstream data centres.

Suited for arrays needing sustained throughput

This drive fits storage arrays, backup targets and nearline archives that rely on the SATA interface and 7200 RPM spindle speed. It is not suited for systems that require a smaller 2.5 inch form factor or a different physical interface. Buyers needing lower power consumption or quieter operation for desktop use should consider alternatives.

SATA 6.0Gb/s interface decides compatibility

The single specification that determines fit is the SATA 6.0Gb/s interface; the host must provide a matching SATA port and 3.5 inch bay with 26.11mm height clearance. Cache size of 256MB and 4.16ms average latency support steady streaming performance. Verify the controller and backplane match this interface before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the ST2000NM000B ship with cables or mounting hardware, or must I buy them separately?

The drive is supplied in retail or OEM packaging that may vary; cables and mounting screws are not included and must be purchased separately.

Which capacity of the Exos 7E10 line should I choose for a 24×7 bulk-data workload?

This model provides 2000 GB at 7200 RPM with 256 MB cache; select a larger Exos 7E10 drive only if you need more than 2 TB of raw space.

What does the 7200 RPM rating mean for real-world throughput on a SATA 6.0 Gb/s link?

The 7200 RPM spindle and 256 MB cache deliver sustained transfers that saturate the 6.0 Gb/s SATA bus for sequential bulk-data reads and writes.
