Seagate Skyhawk ST6000VX0023 6 TB Internal Hard Drive

I ordered two of these based on my NVR's reported expandable storage capacity. However, upon them arriving, I found only one set of cables inside my NVR and had to return one of the drives. Luckily, returning the second one (unopened) went off without issue and I got a refund once the HDD was received by the seller.HOWEVER, after installing the second one, it ran without issue for about five months before it failed... I went to check video about a month ago, found my system displaying a message that no HDD drive installed. I turned off and restarted the system and it recognized the HDD. I formatted the drive and kept an eye on it for about a week. There were no issues, but after trying to look up some video I found the same message, no HDD drive installed and no video... Ugh...I had ensured there were no obstructions around the NVR cover and checked the airflow to make sure it was not an overheating issue. Best I can tell, novice here, the heat generated by the 6Tb HDD was not an issue. I reinstalled the old 2TB HDD that came with the system and haven't had a problem.Note, the installed HDD for my NVR was Seagate as well.

The drive on the security surveillance where Ibwork took a Southward dive. So the Big Boss asked me to find a replacement and that I did right here on Amazon. Product came packaged well, delivery was prompt, and it works like a charm. It's been at least a good 6 months now and no issues so far. I would reccomend this item!

Drive arrived unusable. Packaging was not damaged, but the BIOS wouldn't recognize the drive and it sounded like a garbage truck driving down the road. All kinds of noises we're coming out of this thing. Returned for full refund and bought a new Western Digital 8tb drive.

This Seagate Skyhawk HDD was recommended by the manufacturer of my Security System NVR. It was very easy to install and works great! Highly recommended!
