## Description

16TB 7200Rpm 256MB SAS 3.5 256

Review: Very mad, waste of my time: SAS, not SATA - I haven't seen a non-SATA hard drive sold at retail in, what, a decade or so? This page says nothing about the interface of the drive not being what consumers would 100% expect. Sloppy marketing, and now my project has lost a week while waiting for the wrong type of drive to arrive. If you do receive one of these, be very careful inserting them, by the way. The difference in connector is misleadingly subtle. SATA connectors have two separate sets of pins, while this drive's SAS connector looks nearly identical but connects the two sets of pins and will break some SATA connectors if you push too hard.
Review: TONS of storage! - Wow, these drives are great. I bought four of them. Easy to set up. Had them running in under 10 minutes. I'm using them in a Mediasonic Pro RAID box as individual discs. All read and write perfectly in this system. I can't wait to get more of them.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a sata or sas type hard drive?**
A: Please, if you are looking for a huge drive for your desktop PC, an EXOS drive is probably not your answer. Instead of the SATA HDD interface we see on desktop computers, there's an SAS interface which is not compatible with SATA. Back in the old days it was IDE (sata) vs SCSI (sas). You'd need to add a 12Gb/s SAS (scsi) card to your desktop in order to access the drive (add $150-$400USD). Most desktop systems can ONLY use SATA drives. SAS Servers can use both SAS and SATA drives. There's no reason to down vote a server drive that won't plug into your desktop!

**Q: Is this 512n, 512e or 4KN?**
A: My drive is a ST16000NM002G (12Gb SAS "standard") which ships as 512e but may be formatted as 4KN (if the OS knows how to do this).  I am using mine "as shipped" and am getting about 125Mb/sec transfer rates doing large file writes with Windows 10 Workstation and an HP 12Gb SAS controller card.  The full technical specs are available on the Seagate web site but you have to go to their "Enterprise" section to see the EXOS drives.

### ⭐ Not New
*by I***Y on January 27, 2025*

Ordered this drive thinking it would be brand new, instead received a used unit in an opened package. I can't trust this device in an enterprise environment..
