Seagate IronWolf Pro 14TB Review

We tested the 14TB IronWolf Pro with a number of scenario’s that it may face in the real world. The settings for these scenarios are as follows.

File Server
512MB file size, 16KB Block size
80% Read 20% Write 100% Random
I/O queue depth 128

Web Server
1GB file size, 16KB Block size
100% Read 0% Write 100% Random
I/O queue depth 64

Database
2GB file size, 4KB Block size
90% Read 10% Write, 90% Random, 10% Sequential
I/O depth 128

The drive is the fastest HDD we have seen when it comes to our Workload Scenario's with the exception of the database test where the performance drops off dramatically.
