ST8000NM018B 8TB SATA 7200RPM 256MB Brand new original
The Seagate Exos 7E8 (ST8000NM018B) is an 8TB enterprise-class 3.5-inch hard drive built for high-density storage deployments such as NAS, SAN, rack-mount servers, and data-center bulk storage. It targets system integrators, resellers, and IT procurement teams who need reliable capacity-tier storage with enterprise security features. Note that sustained performance will depend on your host platform and workload profile, so verify controller compatibility before volume deployment.

Good to know
- Uses a standard SATA 6 Gb/s interface, so it integrates with mainstream SATA controllers, backplanes, and enclosures — confirm your chassis provides 3.5-inch bays and adequate cooling for 7200 RPM operation.
- Within the Exos enterprise family, this model sits in the capacity-oriented nearline tier: it offers the 550 TB/year workload rating and 2 million hour MTBF expected of enterprise drives, unlike desktop-class disks that are not rated for sustained multi-bay operation.
- Buying tip: for mixed model or multi-unit orders, request matching firmware and batch consistency from your supplier to simplify array management and future spare-part planning.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
