These are third-party figures about the retail market as a whole, quoted and dated. They are not our own measurements and they do not describe this specific drive.
Resolved against manufacturer compatibility lists we read and dated, capped at 4. Vendor-listed means the manufacturer names this exact part number; fit-verified is our own check of form factor, interface and recording technology against a published requirement. Neither is a guess, and a drive the registry cannot resolve shows nothing here rather than a maybe. How compatibility actually works
Yes. At our last check it was $469.99 ($29.37 per terabyte at its 16TB capacity), sold renewed under ASIN B0F6DC6ZZG. Amazon sets the final price at checkout.
The listing's own title says "renewed" for the ST16000NM001G. That is the seller's claim; we store it verbatim and the warranty is the reseller's, not the manufacturer's. The stored warranty on this row is 5 years, as the listing states it.
The ST16000NM001G's stored recording technology is CMR (manufacturer-sourced), which rebuilds predictably in RAID. The row carries a 550TB/year workload rating.
