Seagate ST4000NM0024

Overview

The Seagate ST4000NM0024 is a 3.5-inch internal hard drive designed for enterprise nearline storage, offering 4 TB of capacity and a 7200 RPM spindle speed. It connects via a SATA 6 Gb/s interface, making it compatible with standard RAID controllers and server backplanes. This drive is built to handle continuous 24/7 workloads up to 550 TB per year, making it a reliable choice for data centers, cloud backup systems, and virtual machine storage.

With a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 1.4 million hours, it provides the durability needed in environments where uptime is critical. Its increased areal density allows more data to be stored in the same physical space, improving rack efficiency and reducing power consumption per terabyte.

Key features

• 4 TB capacity combined with 7200 RPM speed delivers a balance of storage space and steady performance for nearline applications.
• SATA 6 Gb/s interface ensures seamless integration with existing server infrastructure and RAID arrays.
• Designed for continuous operation with a workload rating of up to 550 TB per year, supporting nonstop data access and transfers.
• High reliability backed by a 1.4 million hour MTBF, minimizing downtime in critical enterprise environments.
• 25 percent increase in areal density allows more data storage within the same physical footprint, optimizing rack space usage.
• Optimized IOPS per terabyte enhances performance for large sequential data transfers and random access tasks common in big data and content delivery.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
