Seagate Exos X18 12TB SATA 6Gb/s 7200RPM 3.5-inch Enterprise HDD ST12000NM002H

The Seagate Exos X18 12TB (ST12000NM002H) is a 3.5-inch enterprise hard disk drive designed for mission-critical datacenter, cloud infrastructure, and high-capacity storage deployments. Spinning at 7200 RPM with a 256MB cache and SATA 6Gb/s interface, it delivers the sustained throughput and reliability demanded by 24×7 data centre environments operating at continuous workloads.

The drive is rated for 550TB/year annual workload and carries a 2,000,000 hours MTBF, confirming its suitability for multi-drive RAID arrays and high-duty-cycle server applications. CMR recording ensures deterministic write performance and reliable rebuild times — critical for RAID administrators managing petabyte-scale arrays. SATA 6Gb/s interface ensures broad compatibility across commodity server platforms and JBOD shelves. PowerChoice and PowerBalance technologies reduce idle and active power consumption.

Omnixon Global stocks the Seagate Exos X18 12TB (ST12000NM002H) for enterprise hardware procurement across UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the wider GCC and EMEA regions. Suitable for cloud storage tiers, AI dataset repositories, enterprise backup vaults, video archive systems, and high-density RAID arrays in on-premises and colocation datacenters.

Ideal for

• High-density JBOD and direct-attached storage arrays requiring SATA compatibility and CMR write consistency
