- The Seagate 36TB hard drive M ex that is large enough to store more than 1,440 single-layer Blu-ray discs
- New model ships along with restored versions at almost the same price
- Designed for heavy work loads, clouds and data with lower energy use
The M St36000NM003K exos is the SATA hard drive of the newest SATA data center in Seagate to date. Follow the 32TB model launched at the end of 2024, which occurred almost a year after the company’s 30 TB launch.
We wrote about the 36TB version in January 2025, and now has risen for an order at Serverpartdeals.com, with a price of $ 799.99 (which is equivalent to $ 22.22 per Terabyte, if you ask).
The intriguing thing is that, together with the new unit, models received by the manufacturer and reurbers of sellers are also offered at slightly lower prices.
Restored and rectified
The 3.5 -inch unit is executed at 7,200 rpm and uses the 6GB/s SATA interface. Enter a new milestone of 3TB area density per plate, reaching a high capacity without changing the form factor.
Seagate combines its latest Mozaic 3+ technology with 90% of the components used in previous models. Designed for cloud services, Big Data and AI infrastructure, Exos M offers greater capacity in the same physical footprint.
He claims to deliver the energy efficiency by Terabyte three times compared to traditional units, which helps reduce the operating costs of the data center.
Seagate says that the exos M uses more recycled materials and renewable energy than any of its previous products.
The rectified and restored versions of the 36TB model are now available to book now, with a cheaper price cheaper than the new version.
The version recorded by the manufacturer is listed at $ 789.99 ($ 21.94 per TB), while the reaffirmed model to the seller is available for $ 779.99 ($ 21.66 per TB).
That units used to preordinate together with the new models are offered, it is interesting and possibly linked to early tests or returns.
In addition to the shortage of availability, I cannot imagine that many people rush to buy one of those models only to save $ 10- $ 20 per unit.
Each new unit comes with a 3 -year warranty. That falls two years for the rectified version and only 90 days for the restored model.
