The Seagate IronWolf Pro 12TB (ST12000NE0008) is a 3.5-inch CMR NAS hard drive for businesses, creative teams and IT integrators running NAS arrays of up to 24 bays. IronWolf Health Management, RV sensors and 7200 RPM operation keep RAID storage reliable around the clock.

CMR NAS capacity tuned for multi-bay RAID.

Why NAS Systems Need NAS-Specific Drives

NAS drives spin 24/7 next to other drives, absorbing vibration and heat that desktop drives are not built to tolerate. SMR desktop drives add a further risk by slowing down sharply during RAID rebuilds.

The Seagate IronWolf Pro 12TB is designed for NAS. CMR recording keeps rebuilds predictable, RV sensors counter vibration, and IronWolf Health Management reports drive condition inside compatible NAS software. At 12TB, it gives growing NAS deployments room for several years of data growth per bay. This listing is a 2-pack of identical drives, matched for building or expanding a RAID set in one order.

IronWolf Health Management

IHM integrates with Synology DSM, QNAP QTS and Asustor ADM to run health checks and give prevention, intervention and recovery recommendations before problems become data loss.

Built for Multi-Bay Enclosures

RV sensors and NAS-tuned firmware maintain performance in arrays of up to 24 bays with a 550TB/year workload rating.
