Data center decisions are driven by TCO. The Ultrastar DC HC550, with 16TB & 18TB1, play a leading role in reducing TCO.Featu... moreres:Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Drives the Data Center Architecture:- Data center decisions are driven by TCO. Higher capacity hard drives play a leading role in reducing TCO. An 18TB data center HDD provides 29% more capacity in the same form factor as a 14TB HDD. Higher capacity HDDs enable data centers to lower CapEx by reducing supporting hardware and system level costs when compared to lower capacity drives. Helium-sealed, low power, high reliability drives reduce energy and maintenance costs, contributing to OpEx savings. For example, a data center using 18TB HDDs vs. 14TB HDDs can require 22% fewer racks while consuming 21% less power per TB at idle, resulting in significant overall TCO reduction for data center environments.Raising the Capacity Bar with New Technologies:- Ultrastar DC HC550 integrates a suite of technologies on a 9-disk platform to create a new class of HDDs. 18TB capacity is achieved by combining technologies that improve areal density working together with technologies that improve performance and reduce power consumption.- The first HDD in the industry to harness Energy-Assisted Magnetic Recording (EAMR) technology improves writability and therefore increases areal density.- The industry's first Triple Stage Actuator (TSA) enhances head-positioning accuracy, delivering better performance and increased areal density.- HelioSeal® technology is the foundation for Western Digital's high capacity HDDs and this is the 6th generation of HelioSeal product. Western Digital has shipped >65 million HelioSeal products to date.Specifications:- Capacity: 16 TB- Interface: SAS- Connector: SATA- Disk Speed (RPM): 7200rpm- Cache Size (MB): 512MB- Form Factor: 3.5 Inch- Transfer Rate: up to 1200MB/s- Compatibility: Compatible with Windows, Windows Server and Linux- Dimensions (L x W x H): 5.79´´ x 4´´ x 1.03´´
