Not quite AI... as I thought
I am looking to replace my Qnap storage since it is harddisk for CCTV surveillance, I assume no issue with 24/7 running. I need one urgently as my disk 1 is already giving distress signal. Much later, I read the reviews and realized it is not built for multitasking.. and AI serve little purpose. Yet to know it's performance since just installed.

Lots of space, runs very warm, works great with UniFi
I’m using a UniFi Dream Machine Pro with UniFi Protect. These work with UniFi consoles, and I’ve used these models in the UDM Pro, UDM Pro SE, and UNVR without issues. I didn’t want to worry about using lower-quality settings or recording schedules. With five cameras, I can store over three months of continuous, high-quality footage on this Skyhawk AI 20TB drive. The reliability has been perfect for the several months I’ve used it. No bad sectors after 6000 hours (250 days) of runtime. But let’s talk temperatures: These drives run pretty warm. The disk temperature tends to stay around 48°C in my utility room. It remains to be seen if this has an impact on longevity. For reference, the SAS drives in my HP server in the same room run around 40°C. I also administer a Protect UNVR with three older 10TB “non AI” Skyhawk ST10000VX0004, and those run around 40°C, and that server also has a Skyhawk AI 10TB that runs 49°C. So it does seem that it’s an attribute of this line of drives that they do run warm. You may want to look into getting some airflow over these if you’re going to run a lot of them in a tight space. I haven’t noticed any issues with performance, although I haven’t done extensive benchmarking. Compared to other drives I’ve used, this works just as well and offers a ton of storage. Since it’s a “surveillance drive,” it should perform reliably for sustained, long-term writing, as in the case of a UniFi Protect setup.
