Toshiba HDWT720UZSVA-2 S300 2TB Surveillance HDD

The Toshiba HDWT720UZSVA S300 Surveillance HDD is a 2TB, 3.5-inch hard drive built for continuous video recording. It supports up to 64 high-resolution cameras and operates around the clock. Therefore, it suits compatible surveillance recorders that require dependable storage for multiple video streams. Its 5400 rpm speed, 128MB buffer, and SATA 6 Gbit/s interface support efficient recording and footage retrieval.

Product Overview

The Toshiba HDWT720UZSVA S300 Surveillance HDD is designed for surveillance Digital Video Recorders, Network Video Recorders, and hybrid recording systems. Its 24/7 operating capability supports continuous workloads that standard desktop storage may not handle.

Shingled Magnetic Recording technology provides the 2TB storage capacity. In addition, Dynamic Cache Technology improves cache use during data transfers. Stable Platter Technology also helps maintain consistent read and write operations. As a result, the drive can process several video streams while preserving smooth recording performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many days of footage can the 2TB drive store?

Recording duration depends on camera count, resolution, frame rate, compression format, bitrate, and recording schedule. Continuous recording consumes storage faster than motion-based recording.

What does support for 64 cameras mean?

The drive can process recording workloads from up to 64 supported surveillance cameras. Recorder channel capacity still determines how many cameras the complete system can accept.

Is this 2TB model listed for surveillance RAID arrays?

The datasheet specifically identifies the 4TB HDWT140UZSVA model for surveillance RAID storage arrays. It does not give that designation to this 2TB model.

Which recording technology does HDWT720UZSVA use?

The 2TB model uses Shingled Magnetic Recording technology to organise data on its magnetic platters.
