Storage Drives

When you are looking for economical, high-capacity enterprise-class storage, look to the Ultrastar® 7K6000. Designed to handle workloads up to 550TB per year, it delivers the value and performance you need for data center storage. With outstanding random write and sequential performance, the Ultrastar 7K6000 delivers 6TB of capacity in a 3.5-inch form factor. Innovations like patented Rotational Vibration Safeguard (RVS) sensor technology optimize drive reliability in multi-drive RAID arrays and rack-mounted systems. Engineered for the highest quality, the Ultrastar 7K6000 passes stringent reliability testing. The ultra-reliable Ultrastar 7K6000 reduces downtime, eliminates service calls and minimizes TCO. Rely on the Ultrastar 7K6000 to deliver value and performance to the cost-sensitive data center.

As petabyte (PB) growth continues to increase at a rapid pace, corporate and cloud data centers are under extreme pressure to improve the efficiency of storage. To address this data center challenge, HGST introduces Ultrastar® 7K6000, delivering up to 6TB of capacity and an industry-standard, 3.5-inch hard drive, for capacity-optimized enterprise applications. Ultrastar 7K6000 provides 50% more capacity and 33% better power efficiency in terms of Watts per terabyte (W/TB) than its predecessor, Ultrastar 7K6000 also delivers greater storage efficiency through best-in-class performance, achieving up to 3X higher write performance, even at higher workloads, thanks to HGST media cache architecture, a disk-based caching technology, which provides a large non-volatile cache on the disk. Media cache also allows for improved reliability and data integrity during unexpected power loss.
