This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on October 5, 2020 at 2:49 pmSeagate Technology plc is shipping 18TB SkyHawkh AI 3.5-inch HDD in volume.
It is a purpose-built HDD for AI-enabled surveillance solutions, enabling quicker and smarter decisions. The new drive supports deep learning and ML workload streams for edge applications with ImagePerfectAI.
The capacity to retain more data over time is required for deep learning systems to become smarter and more accurate in their predictive analysis, and behavior analysis requires more data than traditional video capture. SkyHawk AI simultaneously sustains 32 AI streams alongside 64 video streams and supports multi-bay NVR and AI-enabled NVR. It offers a 550TB/year workload rate, more than 3x the workload rate of standard surveillance HDDs in order to manage data deluge in complex video security system environments without sacrificing performance. This drive intelligently adapts between traditional video workloads and video+AI workloads.
“Seagate’s SkyHawk AI 18TB video security system HDD was designed for growing data demands to accommodate nodes of any size making it easy to scale from terabytes to petabytes,” said Jeff Fochtman, senior VP, marketing and business. “With the SkyHawk AI 18TB, Seagate has seen improvements in operational and analytical processes, providing faster access to video security footage when compared earlier versions.“
Built to meet the demands of an always-on large workload in an AI enabled NVR system, the HDD accommodates recording and analyzing footage simultaneously from multiple cameras which equips customers with faster and smarter footage analysis by eliminating data latency and processing. It includes 3 years of Seagate Rescue Services in the event of data loss or accident and a standard 3-year limited warranty.
The SkyHawk AI 18TB HDD is available for an MSRP of €509,99.
