Seagate 6TB IronWolf Pro NAS Hard Drive (HDD), SATA 6Gb/s, 2000000 hrs MTBF, 256MB Cache (MB), 70/40Gs Shock, Operating 2ms | ST6000NT001

The Seagate IronWolf Pro 6TB (ST6000NT001) is built for those who demand more from their Network Attached Storage. While standard NAS drives are limited to 8-bay systems, the IronWolf Pro series is designed to scale, supporting unlimited drive bays. This makes it the ideal choice for creative professionals, small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs), and video production houses that require a robust central storage hub for heavy collaboration and mission-critical backups.

Performance: 7200 RPM Speed and CMR Integrity
In a fast-paced professional environment, performance bottlenecks are not an option. The ST6000NT001 utilizes CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording) to ensure stable data integrity and high-speed write performance during large file transfers and RAID rebuilds. Combined with a 7200 RPM motor and a 256MB cache, this drive achieves sustained data transfer rates up to 250MB/s, allowing for smooth real-time 4K video editing and high-speed data access across your network.

Reliability: Engineered for Enterprise-Class Uptime
NAS drives in professional settings face constant stress, and the IronWolf Pro is built to handle it. It is rated for a 550TB per year workload, which is significantly higher than standard NAS drives. To protect against the resonance found in massive multi-drive enclosures, it features integrated Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors. These sensors ensure the drive remains stable and your data remains accessible even in a fully populated enterprise server rack.
 

Advanced Protection: IHM and Rescue Services
Seagate provides an industry-leading safety net with IronWolf Health Management (IHM). When used on compatible NAS systems (like Synology, QNAP, or Asustor), IHM monitors the drive’s health in real-time. Additionally, this drive includes 3 years of Rescue Data Recovery Services, providing professional help for data retrieval in the unexpected event of mechanical failure or accidental damage.
 

Why the IronWolf Pro 6TB Stands Out
Unlimited Bay Support: Designed to perform reliably in systems ranging from 1 to 24+ bays.

High Workload Rating: 550TB/year allows for intense data-heavy professional workflows.

RV Sensor Technology: Prevents performance degradation caused by vibration in large chassis.

CMR Reliability: Predictable, high-performance recording for heavy RAID and multi-user access.
