Seagate Video 3.5 HDD
Seagate Video 3.5 was a hard drive family created by Seagate, designed for consumer electronics audio visual devices such as DVRs. It succeeds the Seagate Pipeline HD (Advanced Format) family, retroactively including some members of the Seagate Pipeline HD.2 as well. The family was released in 2013, though no models that were native to it were released at that time. Strangely, it was discontinued in 2017 with no successor; the Seagate SkyHawk family is its closest next of kin, for surveillance (but not consumer electronics) DVRs.
History
As part of a major rebrand, the Video 3.5 name was introduced as a replacement to the Pipeline HD branding. Models carrying the Video 3.5 name in place of the original Pipeline HD first emerged in 2013. The Video 3.5 series was last observed in around 2017, seemingly discontinued.
