About the ST1000NM0008

The Seagate Exos 7E2 ST1000NM0008 is a 1TB SATA hard drive built in the standard 3.5 inch form factor. It uses a SATA 6Gb/s interface, making it compatible with most desktop and server motherboards and storage controllers that support SATA drives. This part number belongs to Seagate's Exos 7E2 line, a series generally positioned for use in servers and storage arrays.

The unit listed here has been tested and shows 19,901 power-on hours, placing it in the Light Use tier (500 to 20,000 hours). It passed sequential benchmark testing with a median read speed of 203 MB/s and a median write speed of 204 MB/s, figures consistent with a SATA hard drive of this capacity and interface.

Every drive sold under this listing goes through the same testing process before being offered for sale. This includes a full extended self-test, a SMART health check, a cross-check of reported power-on hours against an independent log, and a NIST 800-88 sanitize with read-back verification to confirm the drive was properly wiped.

ST1000NM0008 questions

What kind of workloads is this drive suited for?+

As a 1TB SATA hard drive, it is generally suited to tasks like bulk storage, backup targets, or secondary storage in servers and workstations where SATA interface speeds are sufficient.

Will this drive work with my existing hardware?+

It uses a SATA 6Gb/s interface and a 3.5 inch form factor, so it will work with any system or storage controller that supports standard SATA drives and bays of that size.

What does the store check on each unit before selling it?+

Each unit undergoes a sequential and random read/write benchmark, a full extended self-test across the whole surface, a SMART health read for reallocated, pending, and uncorrectable sectors, a cross-check of power-on hours against an independent log, and a NIST 800-88 sanitize with read-back verification.

What does the Light Use tier mean for this drive?+

Light Use indicates the drive has between 500 and 20,000 recorded power-on hours. The unit tested here has 19,901 hours, placing it at the upper end of that range.

How fast is this drive in testing?+

The tested unit showed a median sequential read speed of 203 MB/s and a median sequential write speed of 204 MB/s, which is typical for a SATA hard drive of this type.
