Enterprise Drive for Bulk Data Applications 
Exos 7E8 hard drives support up to 8 TB per drive, 1 offering bulk data 
storage for data centre infrastructures requiring a highly reliable enterprise 
hard drive. Exos 7E8 provides costeffective, reliable access to unstructured 
data. Built on field-proven 10th-generation conventional magnetic recording 
(CMR) technology, the Exos 7E8 drive helps to catalyse the datasphere, enabling 
data centre architects and IT professionals to deliver trusted performance, 
rock-solid reliability, ironclad security, and low TCO for demanding 247 
operations. 
Robust Bulk Data Storage for a 247 World 
Exos 7E8 drives are backed by a 2 million hour MTBF rating and support 
workloads of 550 TB per year 10 that of desktop hard drives. With 
state-of-the-art cache, on-the-fly errorcorrection algorithms, and rotational 
vibration design, the Exos 7E8 helps ensure consistent performance in replicated 
and RAID multi-drive systems. 
High Performance for Mainstream Data Centre Applications 
Meet your storage workload requirements in the most efficient and 
cost-effective data centre footprint on the market today. The Exos 7E8 delivers 
easy integration into bulk storage systems with 12 Gb/s SAS and SATA 6 Gb/s 
interface options. With user-definable innovative technology advancements like 
PowerChoice and Seagate RAID Rebuild , you can tailor your nearline storage 
requirements for even greater improvements in lowering your TCO. 
Enhanced Reliability, Data Protection, and Security
Advanced security features help protect data where it lives on the drive. 
Exos 7E8 prevents unauthorised drive access and safeguards stored data with 
security features that include Secure Downloads &iagnostics, TCG-compliant 
Self-Encrypting Drive, and government-grade FIPS/Common Criteria 
tamper-resistant hard drive. 2 Seagate Secure drives simplify drive repurposing
