Drive Specifications
*All specifications above are based on native configurations.
** One GB equals one billion bytes and 1TB equals one trillion bytes when referring to hard drive capacity. Accessible capacity may vary depending on
operating environment and formatting.
*** During periods of drive idle, some offline activity may occur according to the S.M.A.R.T. specification, which may increase acoustic and power to
operational levels.

Rated workload
Average rate of <180TB/year. The AFR specification for the drive assumes the I/
O workload does not exceed the average annualized workload rate limit of
180TB/year. Workloads exceeding the annualized rate may degrade the drive
AFR and impact product reliability. The average annualized workload rate limit
is in units of TB per year, or TB per 8760 power-on hours. Workload rate limit =
TB transferred × (8760/recorded power-on hours).
Warranty
To determine the warranty for a specific drive, use a
web browser to access the following web page:
http://www.seagate.com/support/warranty-and-replacements/
From this page, click on “Check to see if the drive is under Warranty”. Users will
be asked to provide the drive serial number, model number
(or part number) and country of purchase. The system will display the warranty
information for the drive.
