Seagate Storage Calculator

 In the age of Big Data and AI, surveillance is evolving from traditional “catch-the-thief” security to improved business intelligence for optimizing operations and profitability. Today, surveillance systems have the power to filter and analyze the data on-site, at the edge, for quicker insights and better decision-making—while the cloud still serves a valuable piece of the surveillance puzzle. Regardless of what surveillance environment you have, Seagate has you covered from end-to-end.  

 AI demands an entirely new dimension of surveillance storage—far beyond simply supporting standard video streams. Enter SkyHawk AI. The first drive of its kind, SkyHawk AI is custom-engineered to meet the unprecedented workload performance and reliability requirements of AI-enabled surveillance NVR environments. The drive supports up to 550TB per year workload rate, which is up to 3 times the workload of standard surveillance hard drives. Optimized for machine learning and deep learning applications, SkyHawk AI offers support to 50/50 write and read workloads, up to 64 HD video surveillance streams, and up to 16 AI streams.
