Seagate 7E10 vs 7E8

7E8 had 8TB as its highest capacity. For 10TB, of course, there was the X10 platform. Now there is the 10TB capacity also on X10 and 7E10

Seagate has unveiled its new 7E10 Enterprise hard drive series, with capacities ranging from 2TB to 10TB. It will likely replace the 7E8. If so, you will soon see a new part number like ST6000NM0021B (instead of ST6000NM0021A).

What has changed

  • The highest capacity available on the 7E10 is 10TB. 7E8 had 8TB as the highest capacity
  • The 1TB and 3TB capacities are not present in 7E10.
  • Similar transfer rates for 512n SATA and SAS. With 512e and 4Kn the transfer rates are higher

Everything else remains the same - RPM, cache, workload, MTBF, warranty etc are the same.
The new part numbers are as follows on SATA drives
