Optimised for DVRs and NVRs, SkyHawk surveillance drives are tuned for 24x7 workloads in capacities up to 10 TB. Equipped with enhanced ImagePerfect™ firmware, SkyHawk helps to minimise dropped frames and downtime with a workload rating 3x that of desktop drives while supporting up to 64 HD cameras.
SkyHawk Is Smart
The innovative ImagePerfect firmware enables smooth, clear video streaming for always-on, 24/7 surveillance environments -helping to ensure your business can always have a formidable layer of protection.
And SkyHawk Is Vigilant
Built to record 90% of the time — supports up to 64 cameras
Up to 10 TB or 10,000 hours of HD video
180 TB/year workload rating, 3x the workload of a desktop drive and backed by a 3-year limited warranty
Protect your data against the unexpected with an optional +Rescue Data Recovery Service plan
Be Safe
Give yourself the ultimate peace of mind with SkyHawk surveillance drives and never miss a frame, even in harsh environments. SkyHawk’s extreme workload rating, low power consumption and RV sensors can improve long-term drive reliability. SkyHawk can also reliably perform in operating temperatures — from 0°C to 70°C — while tarnish-resistant components offer further protection out in the field.
Only Seagate has been making drives specifically for surveillance storage for ten years. SkyHawk is built to keep systems in the field longer and reduce the need for post-deployment support.
