Seagate IronWolf 8TB NAS HDD 7200RPM 256MB Cache SATA 6Gb/s ST8000VN004

Product Details

Key Features Up to 210 MB/s sustained transfer rate (OD) 7200 RPM spindle speed for low-latency access 256 MB multi-segmented cache SATA 6 Gb/s interface with burst transfer up to 6 Gb/s Purpose-built for network-attached storage, the Seagate IronWolf ST8000VN004 delivers enterprise-class endurance in a consumer-friendly package. Its 7200 RPM motor and 256 MB cache ensure low-latency reads and writes across multiple simultaneous users — ideal for households or small offices where backups, media streaming, and file sharing all compete for the same drive. AgileArray firmware actively compensates for the mechanical resonance that builds up when several spinning disks share the same chassis. Combined with hardware-level Rotational Vibration sensors, the drive maintains throughput in 4-, 6-, and 8-bay enclosures that would otherwise degrade performance of standard desktop drives. IronWolf Health Management (IHM) works inside supported NAS dashboards to surface drive temperature trends, vibration events, and wear indicators before they become failures. Backed by a 1 million-hour MTBF rating, a 180 TB/year workload limit, and Seagate's three-year limited warranty, the ST8000VN004 is built to run continuously without intervention.
