WD Ultrastar Enterprise SATA Hard Drives bring continuous-duty design, enterprise workload ratings and a familiar internal SATA connection to storage deployments that need room to grow. They suit qualified on-premises, cloud and distributed-storage systems where capacity, access patterns and operating conditions must be planned together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the drive around the platform and workload, as well as the space you need. Recording technology, sector format and power configuration differ between versions. Conventional drives and specialised host-managed shingled drives have different integration requirements, so confirm the exact supplied configuration with the system's support information before deployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA Practical Enterprise Connection\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.5-inch internal drives with SATA 6Gb\/s connectivity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7200RPM operation and sustained transfer ratings up to 302MB\/s, depending on the drive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesigned for Continuous Data Access\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24\/7 service and manufacturer workload ratings up to 550TB per year.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnterprise drive designs for qualified servers, arrays and storage platforms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatch the Technology to the System\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCMR and host-managed SMR configurations for different storage requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive-year limited manufacturer warranty under the applicable regional terms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuild the Capacity Layer Your Applications Need\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile services, backup jobs, media collections and distributed applications place different demands on storage. Ultrastar gives system planners an enterprise hard-drive foundation for those capacity workloads. Consider the usable space after formatting, RAID or erasure coding, then allow for growth and maintenance activity. A well-matched drive supports the storage design; the complete server, software and network determine the service your users experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIntegrate with a Qualified SATA Platform\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SATA interface provides a familiar connection for compatible enterprise controllers and backplanes. Check the supported drive list, firmware, carrier and mounting position before installation. A suitable bay must provide the correct data connection, power and cooling. When replacing a member of an existing array, also follow the platform's sector-format and replacement-drive requirements rather than assuming that matching capacity alone establishes compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose Recording Technology for the Write Workload\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConventional magnetic recording configurations support traditional capacity-storage applications in qualified systems. Host-managed SMR configurations require storage software that understands zoned operation and sequential-write rules. This is a material platform requirement, not a setting to overlook during installation. Confirm explicit host-managed SMR support with the storage-system provider before using a shingled configuration; ordinary NAS or RAID support by itself is insufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlan for Sustained Access and Continuous Service\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 7200RPM spindle, drive-specific buffer and enterprise firmware support ongoing data access. The SATA link rating describes the connection, while sustained media throughput describes the rotating drive's performance. Actual results depend on the selected drive, logical block location, queueing and workload. Annual workload ratings count data read and written, including backups and maintenance, so assess the combined traffic when sizing the storage service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUse the Mechanical Design That Fits the Enclosure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe range includes air-filled designs and helium platforms using HelioSeal technology. Supported actuator and vibration-management features help the applicable drives operate in multi-drive systems. These features vary by version, so they should be assessed alongside chassis mounting, airflow and the enclosure's drive qualification. Compare power and sound-power figures when locating a system near occupied working areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUnderstand Advanced Cache Features Where Supplied\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelected newer designs incorporate OptiNAND and ArmorCache. OptiNAND uses integrated flash for drive housekeeping, while ArmorCache provides specific write-cache performance and emergency-power-off protection capabilities. These are features of applicable configurations, rather than a blanket specification for every Ultrastar drive. Where cache policy or interrupted-power behaviour matters to an application, validate the supplied drive and supported host configuration together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCheck Sector Format and Power Before Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLogical sector format affects how the host presents and accesses the drive. Match the supplied format to the controller, operating system and existing array, and confirm any required conversion procedure before deployment. SATA Power Disable support also depends on the configuration and can affect power-up with some cabling. The listed Base SE configurations provide overwrite-based sanitisation; they do not establish a self-encrypting or TCG security capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSupport Reliability with an Operating Plan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe five-year limited warranty and published enterprise reliability ratings help with storage planning. MTBF and annualised failure-rate figures describe statistical drive populations under stated conditions, rather than the life of an individual unit. Provide suitable cooling, monitor drive health and maintain tested backups and recovery procedures. RAID can help preserve access through some failures, but it does not replace a separate backup of important data.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSummary\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWD Ultrastar Enterprise SATA Hard Drives provide a capacity-storage foundation for qualified servers and arrays. Match recording technology, sector format and power configuration to your platform, then plan around the drive's performance and environmental limits. This gives the storage design a practical basis for continuous operation, expansion and long-term maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WD","offers":[{"title":"4TB","offer_id":41884484206651,"sku":"0B36040","price":459.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6TB","offer_id":41884484239419,"sku":"0B36039","price":598.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8TB","offer_id":41884484272187,"sku":"0B36404","price":768.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10TB","offer_id":41884484304955,"sku":"0B42266","price":995.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12TB","offer_id":41884484337723,"sku":"0B47063","price":1197.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"14TB","offer_id":41884484370491,"sku":"0F38581","price":1397.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16TB","offer_id":41884484403259,"sku":"0B48722","price":1826.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"18TB","offer_id":41884484436027,"sku":"0B48723","price":2056.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20TB","offer_id":41884484468795,"sku":"0B48724","price":2290.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"22TB","offer_id":41884484501563,"sku":"0F62785","price":2495.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24TB","offer_id":41884484534331,"sku":"0F65684","price":2745.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"26TB","offer_id":41884484567099,"sku":"0F65672","price":2984.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28TB","offer_id":41884484599867,"sku":"0F62904","price":2662.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30TB","offer_id":41884484632635,"sku":"WSH723200ALN604","price":2849.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"32TB","offer_id":41884484665403,"sku":"WSH723220ALN604","price":3251.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/4541\/3179\/files\/wd-ultrastar-dc-hc-series-enterprise-data-center-sata-hdd-380565.webp?v=1730838871","url":"https:\/\/aceperipherals.com\/ja\/products\/wd-ultrastar-sata","provider":"ACE Peripherals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
