Seagate ADAPT Data Protection Technology
Maintain availability of data
Data is a vital asset in today's business environment, which is why enterprises demand unparalleled data protection. Most industries also require performance and management features that facilitate business continuity, and promote access to their growing data sets with both accuracy and speed.
It is critical with data storage to create layers of data protection to assist with anticipating anomalies and help customers respond when other potential roadblocks arise.
As a leader in data storage technology, Seagate understands this and continues to innovate so that stored data is made safer, more secure, and available to customers when it is needed most.

Seagate ADAPT Technology
Traditional RAID technology works by transferring data to spare drives when a drive is in trouble. However, the potential for rebuild time grows exponentially as RAID systems cope with ever-increasing capacity. Minimizing the rebuild process is important to ensure that all drives in the RAID array maintain high performance.
Seagate Advanced Distributed Autonomic Protection Technology (ADAPT) is based on intelligent parallel architecture that employs smart learning to respond to potential or active failures. Seagate ADAPT allows for
ûexibility of physical storage by using the space on each drive and not just the minimum space across the drive group, as expected in a traditional RAID setup. In short, this ûexibility allows for fast rebuild times and simpliûed expansion.
Measuring failures in minutes, and not days, is achieved by using Seagate ADAPT technology, which virtually eliminates impacts to performance, making Seagate systems truly self-healing.
