Two families we use most

SkyHawk for recorders, IronWolf for NAS

Seagate makes a hard drive family for each kind of system. On security and small-office jobs two matter most: SkyHawk in the video recorder and IronWolf in the NAS, each with a heavier-duty version. We choose by camera count, bay count and workload, then check the recorder’s or NAS’s compatibility list.

What it does

The right drive, and enough of it

A drive’s job is to hold footage and files reliably for years. These are the parts of the Seagate range that matter when we size storage for a site.

Cameras and AI streams

One SkyHawk AI drive takes video from up to 64 HD cameras plus 32 AI streams at the same time. ImagePerfect AI firmware is built so frames are not dropped, even under the heavier write load of video analytics.

Drive health in the box

IronWolf Health Management in compatible NAS units, and SkyHawk Health Management in compatible recorders, watch each drive and give prevention, intervention and recovery advice, so a tired drive can be replaced before it fails.

Rescue Data Recovery

IronWolf and SkyHawk drives include three years of Rescue Data Recovery Services. If a drive is damaged or data is corrupted, Seagate recovers it in its own secure facilities, with a 95% success rate. The service is not offered in every country, so we confirm it when ordering.

Built for multi-drive boxes

In a box full of spinning drives, vibration from one drive affects the next. IronWolf and SkyHawk AI drives carry rotational vibration sensors to counter it, and AgileArray firmware keeps RAID performance smooth in multi-bay NAS units.

  2. Supply

    Seagate drives supplied through our distributors and checked against the recorder’s or NAS maker’s compatibility list.

  3. Set up

    Drives fitted, RAID built and health monitoring switched on in the NVR or NAS before handover.

  4. Support

    Drive health checked on a maintenance plan, with failing drives replaced and warranty claims for drives bought from us lodged through our distributor, as Seagate’s terms require.
