ST20000NM002H 20TB SATA 7200RPM 512MB Brand new original
The Seagate ST20000NM002H is a 20TB 3.5-inch enterprise-class hard drive built for high-capacity storage deployments such as data center bulk storage, backup targets, and object storage nodes. Rated for workloads of up to 550 TB/year with a 2.5 million hour MTBF, it targets buyers who need sustained enterprise reliability rather than desktop-grade drives. Note that the product title lists a SATA interface while the specification sheet states SAS 12 Gb/s — confirm the exact variant with your account manager before ordering, as the two are not interchangeable on the same backplane.
