Optimized for DVRs and NVRs, SkyHawk surveillance drives are tuned for 24/7 workloads. Equipped with enhanced ImagePerfect firmware, SkyHawk helps to minimize dropped frames and downtime with a workload rating of 180TB per year. It can operate with 24/7 surveillance-optimized workloads (8760 hours per year), is ready to record up to 90% of the time, and play back 10% of the time while supporting up to 64 HD cameras.

SkyHawk's workload rating, low power consumption, and NVR-ready design can help improve long-term drive reliability. SkyHawk can also perform in operating temperatures from 32 to 158°F, while tarnish-resistant components offer further protection out in the field against environmental elements.

SkyHawk is built to scale with your needs and performs well in multi-drive systems. Multi-drive surveillance systems can rely on the SkyHawk's RAID-optimized hardware, keeping drives and systems in the field longer by improving vibration tolerance.

A Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 1 million hours represents an improved total cost of ownership (TCO) with reduced maintenance costs.

Lower power consumption means a reduction in heat emissions, which improves reliability in surveillance solutions.
