About this product
The Seagate Surveillance ST3000VX006 is a 3TB internal HDD featuring a SATA 6-Gb/s interface and 64MB of cache. This 3.5-inch drive is designed for surveillance applications, indicated by its model name and type. As an 'openbox' item, it implies it has been opened but is generally in new or near-new condition. Its storage capacity is specified as 2.9TB, which is typically rounded up to 3TB.
Our take
This Seagate Surveillance drive, labeled as 'openbox', offers 3TB of storage (listed as 2.9TB) with a decent 64MB cache. The SATA 6-Gb/s interface is modern and ensures good data throughput, essential for handling multiple video streams from surveillance cameras. Being a dedicated surveillance model, it's expected to handle constant write cycles well. The 3.5-inch form factor is standard for internal desktop use. The openbox status might offer a price advantage, but it's worth verifying the warranty situation, as some openbox items may have reduced coverage.
