ISC West 2019 — Las Vegas, NV (April 10,
2019) – DW®
Complete Surveillance Solutions, the industry leader in digital
recorders, surveillance cameras and related management software, is pleased to
announce our new partnership with Seagate®, which includes using
SkyHawk™ surveillance hard drives to deliver end-to-end, industry-leading video
surveillance solutions. Smart, safe and secure, Seagate SkyHawk hard drives are
engineered for 24×7 surveillance, providing 3× the workload rating of desktop
drives. ImagePerfect™ firmware fine tunes the drives for the workloads of
Blackjack® servers and NAS devices, as well as VMAX® NVRs
and DVRs. Rotational Vibration (RV) sensors in the drives maintain high
performance in multi-drive systems.
SkyHawk™
Health Management (SHM), enabled on SkyHawk 4TB and above drives, has been
integrated into DW Spectrum® IPVMS for added peace of mind. ISC West
attendees can see a live demonstration of the service at DW® Booth
25089.
“SHM
delivers enhanced drive health monitoring by analyzing multiple parameters
related to drive health and using proprietary algorithms to determine potential
environmental effects to the drive,” said Mitch Rose, director of technical
customer management at Seagate. “Information on operating conditions, such as
temperature, humidity, and vibration, enable SHM to recommend preventive
actions.”
For
instance, at a glance, SHM will provide alerts like “Abnormally high operating
temperatures have been detected” and advise users to “Please make sure that the
rear ventilation ports are not blocked and please try to lower the ambient
temperature.” SHM will also alert users of excessive vibration with alerts such
as, “Excessive vibration has been detected” and provide recommendations like
“Please make sure your system is on a stable surface.”
DW
and Seagate are also working to deliver industry-leading data recovery
services, which can often recover video data from drives even after
catastrophic events like floods and fires. Customers can rest assured they have
top experts working to recover their data, in a highly secure environment.
DW
and Seagate SkyHawk hard drives together provide innovative solutions for video
surveillance applications. “Our customers expect products to deliver
crystal-clear video 24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week, both live and recorded
on demand,” said Mark Espenschied, Director of Marketing, DW®.
“Seagate’s product reliability and corporate responsiveness help us to exceed
our customers’ expectations for uptime and performance.”
