Seagate Skyhawk 6TB Video Internal Hard Drive HDD – 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 256MB Cache for DVR NVR Security Camera System with in-House Rescue Services (ST6000VXZ09/009)

So far so good. Easy to install, working great. Good price for the capacity. Replaced the HD in our surveillance DVR and it was seamless.

This worked perfectly on my CCTV NVR, plug and play, fast response, fast playback and video retrieval, definitely value for money.

Using in a Unifi Dream Machine Pro, currently have 2135 power on hours and seems to work well so far. Warranty is good at 3 years.

After two failed fraudulent drives from the WD Purple line ordered from Amazon I finally found one that appears to be both legit and functioning. The first WD Purple I ordered showed 0 power on hours but clearly had been used previously. It was loud, clicked a lot and failed within two weeks. The replacement drive I ordered (That appeared to come from the "Western Digital Store") showed up and wasn't recognized by my system as a WD drive but rather an HGST drive...a model that was manufactured from 2014-2015. The drive had tool marks that had been painted over with black paint and the body also matched HGST drives from that era. You could even see sticker residue where something was removed and a WD Purple label was placed on it. The serial number was fake and also didn't match what SMART reported. WD had no record of either serial. This drive formatted immediately, showed up in new manufacturer packaging and the serial number checks out on the Seagate website. I've used several purple drives in the past with good results but it seems like Amazon has an issue with the resellers on this site so I would 100% avoid buying the WD line on here for now and go with this seagate drive instead.

Used in a video surveillance system and started having major errors after just three months. Filed for a warranty replacement and had to pay for trackable shipping to return. Got a replacement from them two weeks later. I suggest you buy Western Digital instead.

I installed this Seagate SkyHawk 6TB drive into my NVR system, and it has been performing flawlessly. With 6TB of capacity and a generous 256MB cache, it easily handles continuous, multi-camera HD streams without any stuttering or dropped frames. It runs exceptionally cool and quiet, which is exactly what you want for equipment that stays on all day and night. If you need dedicated storage designed specifically to handle intensive surveillance write workloads, this compatible drive is a fantastic value.

Good product

You can't go wrong with Seagate!

Failed in under 2 months

Muito bom o Produto. Recomendo

item is dead on arrival, tested on 2 different machines and made sure it wasnt the motherboard, cables, psu, etc. the disk just doesnt work, returning.

Absolutely amazing, was a breeze to swap out an old one with this, just had my old regular barracuda die on me from 3.5years of uptime (continous) functioning as an NVR drive, out of which around 1 year was fully writing 24/7, I am hoping this will last around the same or longer, frigate is fairly good on writing to storage, and this immediately got picked up and formatted brand new drive was in place and being recorded onto in like 5 mins from opening the package. It was in an ESD bag and the box was strong and had a sort of tangy movement for the drive so even if it got slammed during delivery it would still work just fine. Since this is lower power consumption than my previous drive it would generate less heat too which is just a bonus. So far its silent mounted sideways in a drive bay, just using it in a stripe so will definitely see how long it will last. Fairly cheap and with 3 cameras constantly writing to it, I can store around 30days worth of 1080p footage, maybe even more, but I dont want to reach 90% usage on a drive constantly.

De momento todo funcionando
