Increasing Capacity Density by 50%
As petabyte (PB) growth continues to increase at a rapid pace, corporate and cloud data centers are under extreme pressure to improve the efficiency of storage. To address this data center challenge, HGST introduces Ultrastar(R) 7K6000, delivering up to 6TB of capacity in an industrystandard, 3.5-inch hard drive, for capacity-optimized enterprise applications. Ultrastar 7K6000 provides 50% more capacity and 30% better power efficiency in terms of Watts per terabyte (W/TB) than its predecessor, Ultrastar 7K4000. The 7K6000 is designed for all traditional and rapidly growing scale-out storage applications, including object, block and file storage architectures, providing huge capacity, the fastest 7,200 RPM performance and the best $/TB acquisition cost.
Applications/Environments
o Cloud and Hyperscale storage
o Distributed Files Systems like Ceph(TM) and Hadoop(R) to support Big Data Analytics
o Video surveillance and content distribution
o Direct and Network Attached Storage (DAS and NAS)
o RAID arrays
o Massive scale-out data centers (MSO)
Highlights
o Best-in-class random and sequential performance
o Reliable, field-proven, 7th generation 5-disk design
o Compared to prior generation 7K4000
--50% more capacity1 (6TB vs. 4TB)
