Seagate SkyHawk Hard Drive 8TB Surveillance – ST8000VX004

24×7 workloads with drives designed for DVR and NVR systems. SkyHawk surveillance drives are equipped with enhanced ImagePerfect™ and SkyHawk Health Management to help you sail through your toughest challenges.

Smart Surveillance

SkyHawk’s innovative ImagePerfect and ImagePerfect AI firmware are the clearest choices in the industry. ImagePerfect firmware is built on Multi-Tier Caching (MTC) Technology™ and allows for high image integrity and up to 64 HD video streams. The intelligent firmware algorithm reduces data errors, allows for perfect images to be stored without pixelation and prevents critical frame loss during multiple stream recordings.

Manage Drive Health

SkyHawk Health Management (SHM) is drive-monitoring software designed for prevention, intervention, and recovery. It is available on standard SkyHawk and SKyHawk AI surveillance hard drives.
