Product Description

The Toshiba S300 4TB Surveillance Hard Drive 3.5" SATA 5400RPM (SKU HDD-4TB-TOSHIBA-S300, also listed as HDWT840UZSVA) is the disk that lives inside a CCTV recorder. It is made for recording video, not for desktop use.

What each spec means in practice

  • 4TB capacity: space for footage from several cameras in a home, shop or small business system. How many days it holds depends on camera count, resolution and frame rate.
  • 3.5-inch, SATA III, 6 Gb/s: 3.5-inch is the physical size. SATA (Serial ATA) is the connection type. Together they suit the drive bay in most modern DVR (digital video recorder) and NVR (network video recorder) units.
  • 5400 RPM (revolutions per minute): a steady spindle speed for continuous, sequential video writing, with efficient power use.
  • 24/7 operation: the S300 series is designed to run non-stop in professional security installations.

Why a surveillance drive

A recorder writes video all day and night. The S300 is designed to keep write performance consistent for those video streams, which reduces the risk of frame loss when several cameras record at once.

What else you need

A DVR or NVR with a free 3.5-inch SATA bay. The drive stores the footage, while the recorder handles the cameras and the recording itself.
