Business Wire
Seagate Technology (NASDAQ:STX) today announced the Seagate
Video 2.5 HDD, a 2.5-inch drive specifically engineered for use in
24/7 video applications like digital video recorders (DVRs),
set-top boxes (STBs), and surveillance applications.
The Video 2.5 HDD delivers superior performance and operation in
three key areas of importance to manufacturers — high reliability,
acoustics, and energy efficiency. Featuring best in class
reliability, the drive has an annual failure rate of approximately
0.55, based on current configurations, enabling it to keep product
in the field longer while reducing the cost of field deployment and
maintaining customer retention. It also boasts 24/7 operation
capabilities in extended temperature ranges and enhanced acoustics
for near silent operation — features crucial for consumer
electronics and video applications.
The Video 2.5 HDD provides home entertainment manufacturers one
and two disk, cost-optimized solutions for today’s high-definition
(HD) video recording applications. Featuring capacities up to 500
GB, manufacturers can benefit from its lower-power performance and
slim form factor without sacrificing the streaming capabilities or
reliability of Seagate’s 3.5-inch video drive. Its low power
consumption, 24x7 operation, and support of up to 12 streams of
simultaneous HD content also make it ideal for surveillance DVR
applications.
“We pioneered the HDD video market more than a decade ago and as
such are leveraging our vast knowledge of this technology to bring
consumers the most reliable video drive in the world,” said Scott
Horn, Seagate vice president of Marketing. “The CE industry has
extremely specific criteria and needs when it comes to storage and
the Video 2.5 HDD is built to meet and exceed their rigorous
demands.”
The living-room environment requires superior acoustic
management to limit audible distractions during operation of DVRs
and STBs and the Video 2.5 HDD enables designers to build the
quietest home entertainment systems possible. Operating below the
range of audible sound for the human ear at just 22db, the drive
provides optimized acoustics for home entertainment components.
Maintaining Seagate’s goal of delivering sustainable products,
the drive reduces packaging materials by 53 percent and overall
freight up to 30 percent, over previous 3.5-inch offerings, by
efficiently packing and shipping more units with fewer materials
than larger drives. It also contributes to sustainable energy
initiatives by achieving a 55 percent improvement in power savings
over comparable 3.5-inch offerings, enabling system integrators to
meet aggressive new energy requirements. The Seagate Video 2.5 HDD
is built without the use of harmful chemicals like the fire
retardant bromide and is PVC free.
