The Seagate ST4000NM0035 is a 4TB enterprise-class hard disk drive from the Enterprise Capacity 3.5 family, also associated with the Exos 7E8 range. Designed for compatible enterprise storage environments, it combines a 7200RPM spindle speed with a SATA 6Gb/s interface and 128MB cache.
This 3.5-inch drive uses a 512n sector format, storing data in native 512-byte sectors. It is intended for compatible servers, data storage systems, and other enterprise applications that require high-capacity mechanical storage.
Key Features
- 4TB storage capacity: Provides substantial space for business data, applications, backups, and general storage workloads.
- 7200RPM rotational speed: Supports enterprise storage operations requiring conventional high-speed mechanical disk access.
- SATA 6Gb/s interface: Connects to compatible SATA controllers and storage systems.
- 128MB cache: Provides onboard buffer memory to support drive operations and data transfers.
- 512n sector format: Uses native 512-byte sectors for compatibility with systems supporting this format.
Enterprise Storage Applications
The ST4000NM0035 is suited to compatible enterprise storage configurations, including server storage, business data repositories, and capacity-focused storage systems. Its SATA interface distinguishes it from SAS drives, so verify the controller and backplane interface before installation.
