What you're getting

Seagate IronWolf is a 3.5 inch NAS HDD family distinct from IronWolf Pro (different model numbers and positioning). The Staples listing for model ST16000VN001 describes a 16 TB capacity with SATA 6 Gb/s interface, 7200 RPM, 256 MB cache, and a rated workload of 180 TB per year as shown in the Staples specifications table. The listing showed a final price of $563.14 and was out of stock for delivery at the time the page was reviewed.

This line is not the same as IronWolf Pro (for example ST12000NEZ008 / ST14000NEZ008 from your Amazon links). Use Seagate datasheets and your NAS compatibility list to pick the correct family.

Buying context

Typical value (not live pricing)

  • Always-on backup targets and lighter business NAS that do not need the highest sustained workload ratings
