Product Description
Seagate Exos X16 ST14000NM001G — 14TB enterprise SATA HDD
The ST14000NM001G is a 14TB, 3.5" enterprise hard drive built for continuous 24/7 duty in NVRs, DVRs, RAID arrays and servers. It runs on a SATA 6Gb/s interface at 7200 RPM, giving the sustained, stable throughput multi-channel video recording and dense storage arrays depend on.
Key specs
- Capacity: 14TB
- Form factor: 3.5" internal drive
- Interface: SATA 6Gb/s
- Spindle speed: 7200 RPM
- Workload: High workload rating, rated for 24/7 enterprise and data-centre operation
- Security: Seagate Secure hardware-based data protection features
- Target use: NVR/DVR storage, RAID arrays, servers, multi-drive enclosures
Why it fits multi-bay deployments
Because the drive is engineered for vibration tolerance and operational stability in dense, rack-mounted, multi-bay systems, it holds up in shared-enclosure NVR builds and RAID chassis where neighbouring spindles introduce vibration. That, combined with the high workload rating, is what separates it from desktop-class drives when you're speccing a large recording estate.
Deployment note
Its enterprise-grade design is built for compatibility with leading surveillance platforms and storage architectures, so it slots into existing NVR and server fleets without special handling. For installers standardising on one drive across a site, the 14TB point gives a solid capacity-per-bay figure for long-retention CCTV storage without stepping up to a larger, costlier form.
