10 TB enterprise SATA drive
The Seagate Exos X14 ST10000NM0478 is a 10 TB 3.5 inch internal hard drive built for enterprise storage workloads. It spins at 7200 RPM with a 256 MB cache and connects via a SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface. A helium-sealed design and PowerBalance technology target low power draw and high reliability in data centre environments.
Suited for bulk storage arrays; not for boot speed
This drive suits administrators building high-capacity RAID or JBOD arrays where sustained throughput and 2.5 M-hour MTBF matter. It is not for users who need low-latency random access for operating-system boots or transaction-heavy databases; those workloads benefit from solid-state media instead.
SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface decides fit
The single specification that determines whether this is the right part is the SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface; the drive only works in bays and controllers that support that connection.

Questions about this item
What sustained throughput can I expect from the 10 TB capacity in a real system?
The drive delivers up to 6.0 Gb/s over the SATA link, with 7200 RPM and 256 MB cache supporting large sequential transfers typical of hyperscale workloads.
Does the SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface limit the 7200 RPM platters in practice?
The SATA 6.0 Gb/s interface caps the maximum burst rate; sustained throughput is governed by the 7200 RPM rotation and 256 MB cache, which together determine real-world IOPS per watt.
Will the 3.5 inch form factor fit my standard drive bay?
The drive measures 147.00 mm long, 101.85 mm wide and 26.11 mm high, matching the standard 3.5 inch bay dimensions for enterprise enclosures.
