Efficiency and control in both high performance and high capacity environments

 

Seagate highly invests in R&D at a significant industry-leading pace to help analyse and understand the deployment of products in a variety of markets. This positions Seagate in delivering purpose-built solutions that solve real world problems.

 

An example being Seagate’s RAID systems. Featuring intelligent firmware that allows high capacity systems to easily reach 600K IOPS at 1ms latency, allowing enterprises to access applications and critical data when needed most.

 

Seagate’s firmware provides data management features that provide significant performance and exceptional capacity for enterprise data centres. Today, enterprises no longer need to sacrifice between the two. Much of the firmware upgrades allow of continuous improvements in performance and the availability of enterprise-level features within entry-level cost.
 

Summary of Seagate’s Firmware Features

Data Protection Scaled for Any Density

Seagate ADAPT data protection is able to provide 95% faster rebuild times when compared to traditional RAID solutions. The dispersed implementation allows for data across every drive, which creates a self-healing storage solution towards fault tolerance within minutes rather than days.
 

Efficient Processing with Multicore Capabilities

Provided throughout all Seagate systems, this feature allows for multiple cores to be processing at once. This efficient capability enables lightning-fast 600K IOPS, tested throughout every product line.
 

Distributed Data with Real-Time Tiering

Seagate leads the industry through its firmware in tiering data, high-performance SSDs are utilised only for highly critical or hot data. This feature automatically tiers hard drives and SSDs, also recognising incoming data patterns to help distribute data towards the most appropriate tier for optimal performance.
 

Highly Secure Features that Handle Ever-growing Cybersecurity challenges

The foundation of Seagate’s storage systems are built with an extra layer of protection against cybersecurity threats. The firmware includes STFP and advanced admin access controls, as well as self-encrypting drives providing extra security.
 

Rid of Streaming Challenges

The firmware’s streaming features allows for end users to access any data needed, whenever they need it, especially during environments of high-throughput media. With an advanced quick lock system, cache watermarks, smart stream recycling, and dynamic read ahead governance, streaming data through systems is reliable, quick and efficient.
