The Ultrastar DC HC300-series provides low to mid-capacity drives that are economical to acquire, yet deliver quick and reliable data access for traditional data center applications.
As the industry evolves to develop purpose-built solutions for growing data storage requirements, IT managers continue to rely on lower capacity drives that are economical to acquire, yet deliver quick and reliable data access for traditional data center applications
Designed to handle workloads up to 550TB per year, Ultrastar® DC HC320 is an 8TB HDD that helps address economic and access requirements of many traditional IT workloads
Low capacity drives also help address architecture limitations
Part of our mid-capacity DC HC300 series, the Ultrastar DC HC320 is designed for traditional storage and server applications as well as distributed and scalable computing, including block and file storage architectures, providing fast 7,200 RPM performance and lower acquisition cost to help ease budget constraints.
Ultrastar DC HC320 is offered with either 6Gb/s SATA or 12Gb/s SAS interface in a 512e format.
Ultrastar DC HC320 is based on a proven 5-disk air platform design that uses conventional magnetic recording (CMR) technology in a 3.5-inch large form factor
Compared to the prior generation, Ultrastar 7K6000, the DC HC320 delivers 33% more capacity, up to 12% performance boost and uses slightly larger-diameter media
It features a second-generation, dual-stage micro actuator to enhance head positioning accuracy for better drive performance
Write performance gains are also supported by Western Digital's media cache architecture, a disk-based caching technology that provides a large cache area on the disk, which also improves reliability and data integrity during unexpected power loss
Finally, the addition of flash-based non-volatile cache (NVC) on both SATA and SAS models helps improve write performance
The Ultrastar DC HC320 also includes a Rebuild Assist feature, which helps dramatically reduce RAID rebuild times and maintain system performance during the rebuild process
