Ubiquiti UACC-HDD-E-8TB Enterprise 3.5" SATA Hard Drive
Overview
The UACC-HDD-E-8TB is an 8TB enterprise-grade 3.5-inch SATA drive built as a direct replacement or expansion storage module for Ubiquiti UniFi Protect NVR systems and compatible enterprise surveillance infrastructure. Spin speed of 7200 RPM over a 6 Gbps SATA interface delivers the throughput headroom needed for multi-camera continuous recording without introducing latency bottlenecks — a practical difference when your NVR is running 16+ simultaneous 4K streams. The drive pulls 5V/12V input and operates across 5–60°C, covering typical climate-controlled server rooms and outdoor equipment enclosures without thermal derating.
Compatibility
This drive integrates directly with Ubiquiti UniFi Protect NVR systems that support standard 3.5-inch SATA bays. Verify your specific NVR model documentation for drive slot count and hot-swap support before purchasing multiples for expansion. Not compatible with 2.5-inch laptop drives or NVMe-only systems. NDAA-compliant sourcing means it clears procurement gates for federal and defense sector deployments without parallel-import or grey-market risk.
Installation Notes
Drive installs in standard 3.5-inch SATA bays using existing power and data cables already present in your NVR enclosure. No special tools or adapters required for mounting. Workload rating of 550 TB/year (approximately 1.5 TB daily) suits continuous surveillance recording on enterprise systems; mean time between failure of 2,000,000 hours sets realistic expectation for planned replacement cycles in 24/7 operation. Operating humidity tolerance of 5–90% noncondensing permits use in equipment rooms with standard climate control but not in damp outdoor cabinets without additional enclosure protection.
