Seagate 2MU203-003 3.5 Inch SAS Hard Disk Drive

The Seagate Exos X16 ST10000NM002G is a 10 TB, 3.5-inch enterprise SAS hard disk drive designed for data centers and storage arrays. This model (PN 2MU203-003) runs at 7,200 RPM and uses a 12 Gb/s SAS interface to provide reliable, scalable storage for servers, SANs, and enterprise NAS environments. It includes 256 MB of cache and uses 512e sector emulation, enabling compatibility with modern servers and virtualization workloads. The drive is part of Seagate's Exos X16 family, with an MTBF rated at 2.5 million hours and sustained transfer rates up to roughly 245 MB/s, suitable for large sequential reads/writes and heavy background I/O. The 3.5-inch form factor fits standard enterprise backplanes and drive cages, making it a straightforward upgrade for capacity-constrained arrays needing durable, long-term storage for archives, backups, or data-intensive workloads.
