What the specifications mean
- CMR recording is specified for this exact model. Check enclosure support and workload limits before installing it in an array.
- Up to 180 MB/s sustained transfer, as specified by the manufacturer. This is not a measured game-loading or random-I/O result.
- 180 TB/year workload rating. This is a workload limit, not a promise of drive lifespan or a backup guarantee.
- Rated for up to 64 cameras under the manufacturer's conditions. Camera bitrate and recording schedule determine how long 1TB of footage lasts.
