ST4000VX016 4TB SATA 5900RPM 64MB Brand new original
The Seagate SkyHawk ST4000VX016 is a 4TB surveillance-optimized hard drive built for 24/7 video recording environments such as CCTV and IP camera NVR systems. It suits system integrators and security distributors sourcing bulk storage for multi-camera deployments, with ImagePerfect™ firmware supporting up to 64 HD video streams. Note that its 5900 RPM spindle speed and 180 TB/year workload rating position it for continuous video write workloads rather than general-purpose desktop or enterprise database use.

Good to know
- Verify that your NVR or DVR chassis supports 4TB+ drives and provides adequate cooling; the reduced power and thermal output helps in dense multi-bay surveillance enclosures.
- Within Seagate’s product family, the SkyHawk line sits between desktop drives and enterprise-class NAS drives — tuned for continuous sequential video writes rather than random-access enterprise workloads.
- When purchasing in volume, confirm quantity, batch consistency, and packaging (bulk vs. retail) with your sales contact before confirming the order.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
