Key Specifications

Built for AI Surveillance at Scale

With support for up to 64 HD cameras and 32 AI streams, this drive is designed for high-density NVR environments. The ImagePerfect AI technology ensures zero dropped frames, even under heavy concurrent workloads, making it ideal for modern AI-driven security setups.

Enterprise Reliability for 24/7 Operation

Rated for 550 TB/year workload, the SkyHawk AI is built for continuous operation. With a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 2 million hours and rotational vibration sensors, it maintains stability in multi-drive chassis where vibration is a concern.

Smart Health Monitoring

Integrated SkyHawk Health Management (SHM) actively monitors drive health and flags potential issues before they cause downtime. This is particularly valuable in surveillance systems where data loss is not an option.

Power Efficiency & Thermal Design

Operating between 0–65 °C, the drive balances performance with efficiency—consuming 7.72 W during typical use and just 1 W in standby. This makes it suitable for always-on deployments without excessive heat or power draw.
