ST8000VE001 8TB SATA 7200RPM 256MB Brand new original
The Seagate ST8000VE001 is an 8TB 3.5-inch enterprise-class SATA hard drive from the SkyHawk video surveillance family, built around a 7200 RPM spindle and 256 MB cache. It targets system integrators and B2B buyers deploying NVR/DVR recorders, video analytics nodes, or write-intensive archival storage where sustained throughput and high annual workload tolerance matter. Note that in chassis builds, verify enclosure airflow and backplane SATA compatibility before deployment.

| Condition | Brand new original |
Good to know
- Compatibility: Uses a standard SATA 6Gb/s interface and 3.5-inch bay, making it suitable for most surveillance NVRs, RAID enclosures, and server chassis — confirm your controller supports the drive’s power and cabling requirements.
- Family positioning: Within Seagate’s lineup, this 7200 RPM class drive with a 550 TB/year workload rating sits above desktop-class drives in duty-cycle tolerance, which is why it is commonly specified for surveillance and write-heavy video workloads rather than general office PCs.
- Buying tip: When ordering in volume for export or system builds, request consistent batch/date codes across units to simplify firmware validation and long-term spares management.
For tray and reel pricing, current stock by part number and date code, and volume discounts on bulk orders, request a bulk quotation.
