Seagate IronWolf 8TB NAS Hard Drive – ST8000VN002

When it comes to efficient, long-term network storage, the Seagate IronWolf 8TB NAS Hard Drive is engineered to perform reliably in always-on, multi-user NAS environments. Designed for seamless integration with RAID-based systems, this 3.5″ internal hard drive offers performance, endurance, and intelligence — all in one.

Built for NAS. Ready for 24×7 Uptime.

Unlike standard desktop drives, the IronWolf ST8000VN002 is purpose-built for NAS systems with up to 8 bays. Its SATA 6Gb/s interface, 256MB cache, and 5400 RPM spindle speed combine to deliver consistent, power-efficient performance around the clock. Additionally, it supports heavy workloads without sacrificing speed or data integrity.

Reliable Performance You Can Count On

Featuring a sustained transfer rate of up to 202MB/s, this drive ensures quick access to large files, media content, and backups. Whether you’re managing surveillance footage, running virtualization workloads, or hosting cloud backups, you’ll benefit from the drive’s consistent throughput and stability.

Moreover, the 8TB storage capacity gives you room to store years of documents, images, videos, or backups, making it a reliable choice for content creators, IT professionals, and home server users.

IronWolf Health Management (IHM)

To enhance reliability, Seagate includes IronWolf Health Management. When used with compatible NAS systems such as Synology or QNAP, IHM proactively monitors drive health and helps prevent data loss with intelligent error detection and recovery features. This reduces downtime and enhances your data security.

Tuned with AgileArray Technology

Thanks to Seagate’s AgileArray™ technology, the IronWolf 8TB optimizes drive performance for NAS workloads. It supports dual-plane balancing, advanced power management, and RAID optimization for better reliability in demanding environments. This ensures that your NAS runs smoother and lasts longer.

Quiet, Cool, and Power-Efficient

With a quieter acoustic profile and power-efficient design, the ST8000VN002 is ideal for systems in homes or small offices. Even when operating 24/7, it minimizes heat and vibration, resulting in longer drive life and more reliable service.
