WD Ultrastar DC HC530 14TB SATA 6Gb/s 3.5″ Data Center HDD, 7200RPM Memory Speed, 512MB On Board Cache, 262 / 250 Throughput, 2.5M Hours MTBF | WUH721414ALE604

The power-disable feature enables host power control, SATA-to-SATA power adapter cable is included for legacy systems
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. A 14TB data center HDD provides more capacity in the same form factor as a 12TB 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.
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. 14TB 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 Hel
Trusted Reliability and Quality for Data at Scale
With its massive capacity and 2.5M MTBF (projected) reliability rating, the Ultrastar DC HC550 is ideal for object storage implementations. Object storage systems with erasure coding provide better data durability compared to RAID systems, given their tolerance for simultaneous error conditions. The DC HC550 offers security and encryption options to help protect data from unauthorized use, including SED models in both SATA & SAS. Trust Western Digital and the Ultrastar DC HC550 hard drive to deliver the highest capacity, lower TCO, and more value to your data center
