Seagate IronWolf Pro ST12000NT001 12TB 7200 RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive

The Seagate IronWolf Pro 12TB (ST12000NT001) is part of the premier line of NAS-optimized drives, purpose-built to handle the heavy vibrations and high-access demands of networked storage. Whether you are running a high-speed media server, a commercial file-sharing hub, or a secure private cloud, this drive provides the density and durability needed to protect your most critical data.

Performance: CMR Technology and 7200 RPM Speed
Performance is never compromised with the IronWolf Pro. Unlike standard desktop drives, the ST12000NT001 uses CMR (Conventional Magnetic Recording), which prevents the performance degradation often found in SMR drives during sustained write operations. Combined with a 7200 RPM spindle speed and a 256MB cache, this drive delivers sustained data transfer rates up to 270MB/s, making it ideal for high-definition video editing and large-scale backups.

Reliability: Built for 24x7 Multi-User Environments
NAS systems operate constantly, and the IronWolf Pro is built to match. It features integrated Rotational Vibration (RV) Sensors, which maintain performance by neutralizing vibrations in multi-bay chassis. With a MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of 2.5 million hours and a workload rate of 550TB per year, this drive is engineered to stay healthy under pressure, supporting up to 24-bay configurations without sweat.

Advanced Data Protection: IronWolf Health Management
Data safety goes beyond the hardware. This drive supports IronWolf Health Management (IHM) on compatible NAS systems (like Synology and QNAP), which monitors drive health in real-time and provides proactive intervention alerts. Additionally, Seagate includes Rescue Data Recovery Services, providing peace of mind against unforeseen data loss due to mechanical failure or accidental damage.

Why the IronWolf Pro 12TB Stands Out
Massive 12TB Capacity: Perfect for 4K video libraries, extensive databases, and server backups.

AgileArray Firmware: Optimizes RAID performance, power management, and vibration tolerance.

Workload Powerhouse: Rated for 550TB/year—over 10x the rating of standard desktop drives.

Enterprise-Grade Warranty: Built to provide long-term service in demanding professional environments.
