Seagate announced today its IronWolf, IronWolf Pro and BarraCuda Pro hard drives are now available at capacities up to 12TB.

Seagate claims that the 12TB BarraCuda Pro HDD is "the fastest, highest-capacity and most reliable hard drive for desktop computing available on the market today." The drive offers a max sustained data transfer rate of 250 MB/s, copious 256 MB cache and 7200-RPM spin speed. With 12TB of capacity, its 300TB/year WRL, 5-year warranty and 2 years of data recovery services included at no extra charge, BarraCuda Pro 12TB ensures complete peace of mind.

Seagate's 12TB IronWolf and IronWolf Pro HDDs offer 12TB capacities in only a 3.5 inch form factor, meeting the needs for file-sharing, remote access and backup for SMBs, enterprises and creative professionals.

The new 12TB drives also support Seagate's IronWolf Health Management (IHM) software. Designed to operate on enabled Synology DiskStation NAS, Asustor NAS, and QNAP NAS, populated with Seagate IronWolf or IronWolf Pro drives, IHM improves the overall system reliability by displaying actionable prevention, intervention or recovery options for the user and will be available within the next quarter.
