WD Ultrastar 6TB 7200 RPM 128MB Cache SATA 3.5″ Enterprise Hard Drive 0F23001
Overview :
Economical, high-capacity enterprise-class storage
With capacity options of 6TB, 5TB, 4TB and 2TB, the Ultrastar 7K6000 is an industry-standard, 3.5-inch hard drive for capacity-optimized enterprise applications. It’s available with 12Gb/s SAS and 6Gb/s SATA options, designed to handle workloads up to 550TB per year, and offers 30% better power efficiency, 25% faster sequential read/write performance and 3X faster random write performance when compared to its predecessor 7K4000.
Performance is just part of the story. Innovations like exclusive 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. Rest assured that the Ultrastar 7K6000 delivers value and performance to any cost-sensitive data center.
